1 cup butter
4 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 oz. whiskey
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3 1/2 cups flour
1 egg

Sift together flour, baking powder and baking soda.  Add to mixture; stir in, do not beat.  Dough should be soft but not sticky. Pinch off one inch balls of dough and shape into crescents. 

Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until bottom is lightly browned. Place cookies on wire rack and let cool for about 5 to 6 minutes.  Roll in additional powdered sugar.
