This is from Santa's Favorite Cookies Cookbook.
2 squares ( 1 oz each) unsweetened chocolate
2 1/4 c all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 c butter or margarine, softened
3/4 c granulated sugar
1 egg
1 tsp almond extract
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 400.
Melt chocolate I used the microwave following the instructions on the package. Set aside once melted.
Combine flour and salt in small bowl; stir to combine.
Beat butter and granulated sugar in large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and almond extract. Beat in chocolate. Gradually add flour mixture. Dough will be stiff.
Fill dough in your cookie press. Press onto ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch a part. Bake 7 minutes or until just set.
Combine powdered sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Transfer to fine mesh strainer and sprinkle over hot cookies while they are still on the cookie sheet. Remove cookies to cookie rack; cool completely. Store tightly covered at room temperature.
