Ingredients:
2 cups sifted cake flour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, separated Candied citron Candied cherries
1/4 teaspoon each vanilla and almond extract

Directions:
Sift together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy and beat in egg yolks 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually stir in dry ingredients and mix well. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites flavored with vanilla and almond. Add enough flour to make dough soft enough to roll out easily. Roll out on floured board to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut with floured cooky cutters. Arrange cherries and candied citron (cut into small pieces and strips) in flower designs on cookies. Place on greased cooky sheet. Bake in hot oven (400°F.) 8 to 10 minutes. Store between layers of waxed paper in airtight container.
