I missed a bunch of posts, so I don’t know if anyone posted any Chinese
recipes in honor of Chinese New Year, but I got these from another list and
they were obtained from www.copycat.com a wealth of copycat recipes

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Cream sugar and butter until light and fluffy,
then add egg yolks. Next add the extracts. Slowly add the flour and baking
powder to the creamed butter and sugar and continue to mix well. Roll dough
into 1 inch balls and place on a ungreased cookie sheet. Press an almond
into the center of each cookie, and flatten cookies slightly with the edge
of a spoon. Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, until they are golden brown.
To enhance the color you can use an egg wash on the cookies before you
place them into the oven.
