Cream butter in large mixing bowl. Gradually beat in Confectioner’s sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and almond extract. Gradually blend in flour. Chill dough for ease in handling. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll dough out on lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into desired shapes using floured cookie cutters. Place on unbuttered cookie sheets. Bake 8 to 12 minutes, or until golden. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Decorate as desired.
