Add the sugar and beat until combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
Beat in the egg yolks and almond extract until combined.
Beat in the all-purpose flour.
Cover the dough and chill for 1 hour or until it's easy to handle.
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Grease a cookie sheet.
Shape the dough into 1-inch balls.
If desired, roll the balls in egg whites and then in the finely chopped slivered almonds to coat.
Place the balls 1 inch apart on the prepared cookie sheet.
Using your thumb, make an indentation in the center of each ball.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the bottoms are light brown.
If the cookie centers puff during baking, re-press the centers with the rounded side of a measuring teaspoon.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool.
Fill each center with 1 tsp of cherry pie filling and place a cherry on each cookie.
