Heat oven to 350 degrees F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Cream together butter and 2/3 cup sugar until fluffy.

Beat in extracts, then add almonds.

Stir in flour and beat until well mixed.

Divide dough in half and roll each half into a log 1 inch in diameter.

Cut each log into 3/4-inch pieces, and roll each piece into a cylinder 2 inches long.

Place cylinders 1 to 2 inches apart on baking sheets, and form into crescents.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly golden.

Let crescents cool, then roll in additional sugar.
