My family - all of whom are self-proclaimed chocoholics - can't get enough of these rich cookies. My sister-in-law shared the recipe and believes their success lies in beating the butter and sugar very well. Ingredients:
2 cups butter, softened |
2 cups sugar |
2 teaspoon almond extract |
3-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup sliced almonds |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in extract. Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Stir in almonds. 2. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool for 2 minutes before removing to wire racks. Yield: about 7 dozen. |
