Soft and moist with a light vanilla and almond flavor. Got these from a friend's wedding. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup white sugar |
1 egg, beaten |
2 tablespoons milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
Directions:
1. Cream together the butter, sugar, egg, milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract in a large bowl.
2. Stir in the flour and baking powder.
3. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
5. Divide the dough into thirds. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each portion to 1/4-inch thick.
6. Cut cookies out using a floured cookie cutter.
7. Arrange cookies on an ungreased baking sheet about 1-inch apart.
8. Bake until cookies are lightly golden, 6 to 9 minutes.
9. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
