Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar together with a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the butter mixture. Beat again until thoroughly combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Add the milk and mix briefly to bring the dough together. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter or your desired shape to cut out cookies.
Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just barely golden. The cookies should remain pale for a soft texture.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, frost or decorate as desired, or enjoy them plain for a rich, buttery treat.
