<RecipeText>Cream the butter and sugar. Stir in egg yolks, and then almond extract. Add flour, stirring until all ingredients are blended. Add green food coloring to make dough a pretty light green.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Pinch off small balls of dough, roll between palms of your hands into an acorn shape, pointed at the bottom. Place on a greased and floured cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for about 10 minutes, until shininess has disappeared and cookie is solid.

Remove cookies from pan and cool. Dip wide end of cookie in melted chocolate. Place on waxed paper until chocolate has hardened.

Makes about 50-60 cookies.
