Holiday Cut-out Cookies

In a large bowl, mix the flour and margarine together as for pie-crust. Add sugar, salt, nutmeg. Make a shallow well in the center and add eggs. Mix milk with baking soda and add to flour/egg mixture along with the vanilla and lemon extract. Mix well. Dough will be moist. Chill at least 4 hours or overnight. Roll out and cut (Add more flour as needed as you roll…) Bake at 300° - 325° for approx. 8 minutes (use slightly greased cookie sheets). Cool before frosting. To make the frosting, mix powdered sugar, almond extract and milk to a spreading consistency. Add food coloring as desired. Decorate and let frosted cookies sit a bit to set the frosting before placing in storage container. When cool, spread with powdered sugar icing:
