Mix together thoroughly 1/3 cup whipping cream, 2 cups flour, 1 cup butter. Chill.
When chilled, roll out dough, fairly thick. Cut with round cookie cutter. Sprinkle each cookie with sugar and prick a few times with fork.
Bake on ungreased cookie sheet @ 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
Cook cookies; put together with filling made of 1 egg yolk, 1/4 cup butter, 3/4 cup powdered sugar and 1/2 t almond extract.
Use food coloring to dye filling green and red.
