Sift the flour into a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add the sugar, almonds, eggs, softened butter, kirsch, and salt. Working from the center outward, knead the ingredients into a firm, smooth ball of dough. Let it rest in a cool place for one hour. Roll out the dough on a floured board and cut out small round cookies. Brush each with egg yolk. Bake at 180-200°C for 15-20 minutes. The cookies can be stored for a long time in tightly sealed containers. Makes about 30 cookies.
