Glazed Spritz Cookies

In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, sugar and salt until creamy.  Add egg and extract; beat until smooth. Beat in flour and food coloring. Pack dough into cookie press. Form desired shapes onto ungreased baking sheet. 

Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until firm but not brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to wire rack to cool.

For glaze, whisk powdered sugar, half-and-half, corn syrup, extract and food coloring. If piped frosting is desired, thicken a portion of glaze with additional powdered sugar; set aside. Dip cookie tops in glaze shaking off excess. If desired, sprinkle with decorator sugar. Pipe on thickened frosting and sprinkle with additional decorator sugar.
