1. In large mixing bowl beat butter, sugar and vanilla on medium speed of electric mixer until creamy. Reduce speed to low. Add flour, Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® cereal and almonds. Beat until combined.
2. On lightly floured surface roll dough, on-half at a time, to 1/8-inch thickness. (Keep remaining dough refrigerated until needed.) Cut with 2-inch round cookie cutter. Place on ungreased baking sheets.
3. Bake at 375°F about 7 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Transfer to wire rack. Cool completely.
4. In small saucepan combine chocolate morsels and shortening. Cook and stir over low heat until melted. Place in cake decorating bag fitted with straight tip or in plastic sandwich bag. Cut off small corner of plastic bag, if using. Pipe designs of various holiday shapes, or drizzle, over cooled cookies. Let stand until set. Store in airtight container. ***
