From the Kitchen of:  Aunt Sadie
Source:  Aunt Sadies Scrapbook

Preheat oven to 400°. In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter, egg, salt, vanilla and mint extract. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until mixture is light and fluffy (2 to 3 minutes). Add flour and beat at low speed scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Mix in green food coloring, adding just enough to achieve the desired color. If dough is too soft, cover and refrigerate until firm enough to form cookies (30 to 45 minutes). Place dough in cookie press. Form desired shapes one inch apart on cookie sheets. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Immediately after removing cookies from oven, place a hershey's kiss on top of each cookie.
