To celebrate the pitter-patter of tiny feet (or any occasion), crisp buttery sugar cookies like these are a hit, hands down! They cut wonderfully into delicate shapes and look festive decorated with pink and blue sugar. -Joyce Leach, Armstrong, Iowa Ingredients:

1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon cream of tartar |
