In a large bowl combine butter and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Beat in
the egg, vanilla and almond extracts, and salt. Stir in the flour until mixed
well.
Pack the dough into the cookie press as directed, and fit the press with the
desired disk. Press the dough out onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle each
cookie with colored sugar if desired.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until cookies are slightly golden around the edges.
Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool.
