Steps:
- Pre heat oven to 375 degrees F Sift flour with baking powder into large bowl. Add shortening, sugar, almond and vanilla extracts and salt and beaten egg.
- Knead the mixture until thoroughly combined. Turn dough onto unfloured surface. Lightly pat into 1/4" thickness with a floured 2 1/2 " heart shaped cookie cutter, cut out cookies.
- Place 2" apart on ungreased cookie sheet. GLAZE: Combine the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water. Brush on top of each cookie and place an almond in center of each. Bake in pre heated 375 degree oven for 15 minutes, watch closely as I found they don't take that long, should be lightly golden brown.
