In the bowl of a stand mixer or with an electric mixer, cream together butter and sugar. Beat in egg, vanilla extract, almond extract and salt until creamy.
With the mixer on low, or with a wooden spoon, slowly beat in flour until just combined.
Place dough in cookie press fitted with desired template. Pipe dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Decorate with desired sprinkles, candies, etc.
Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until edges of cookies just start to turn light golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes before removing from cookie sheet.
