A not too sweet sugar cookie. Use your favorite frosting- just substitute almond extract for the amount of vanilla extract - a good almond flavored crisp cookie. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/4 lb butter, softened (1 stick) |
1 cup sugar |
1 egg |
2 tablespoons milk (or water) |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
Directions:
1. In medium bowl mix dry ingredients. Set aside. 2. In large bowl cream butter and sugar with a mixer until fluffy. Add egg, milk and almond extract and beat well. 3. Add the dry ingredients 1/3 at a time into butter sugar mixture, mixing until well blended. 4. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least a 1/2 an hour before rolling out. 5. Preheat oven to 360 degrees. 6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1/3 of the dough at a time. Roll to 1/8 inch thick and cut out with cookie cutters. 7. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet for 5-7 minutes. Do not allow to brown. 8. Cool on wire racks and frost with your favorite icing. |
