It's a wee bit too early to be wishing St Patrick's Day -- 17th March's ages away, but neverthless, here's the cheers back to you, Sabrina. 
I like those leprechauns as well. But not that stupid 'scary' one in the movies by the same name of the creature.

ALMOND SHORTBREAD SHAMROCK COOKIES
Preparation 20 minutes to mix, 1 hour to chill, 12 to 14 minutes to bake each tray. Recipe from Andre Prost, Odense Almond Paste.
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, room temperature
7-ounce package almond paste, grated
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups flour
2 tablespoons milk (optional)
Green sugar sprinkles (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
With an electric mixer, beat butter on high for 3 minutes or until very soft and light in color. Add grated almond paste and sugar. Mix on low speed until combined. Turn mixer to high and beat a full 5 minutes or more, until almost white-colored and fluffy. Mix in vanilla.
Gently stir flour into mixture until just combined. Spoon1/2 of dough onto a 15-inch-long piece of wax paper. With hands, press dough out to a1/4-inch thickness. Top with wax paper. Lightly smooth top with rolling pin. Keeping wax paper in place, lay dough on cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining half of dough and chill for 1 hour to firm.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment or foil.
Work with one piece of dough at a time, keeping other half refrigerated. Cut out cookie shapes, shamrocks or as desired, and place on cookie sheets 2 inches apart, dipping cutters in flour if sticking. Repeat until all dough is used. Keep unbaked cookies refrigerated until ready to bake.
Bake plain or brush tops with milk and sprinkle with green sugar. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until cookies are firm and bottoms are very light golden. Cool on wire racks.
Makes forty-six 2 1/2-inch cookies.
