I used to work at cookies by design,so this is the real deal - except modified a little because the average person will not be able to buy almond emulsion or spread Also, this recipe is scaled down from it's original, which was made in a 60 qt. mixer. It may have to be scaled down again. I have not made it at home. I must warn you, I do not know the yield on these cookies. I made up a number... Ingredients:
24 ounces butter (softened) |
20 ounces powdered sugar (sifted) |
3 whole eggs, plus |
1 egg yolk |
1/2 ounce vanilla extract |
1/4 ounce almond extract |
6 1/2 cups flour |
Directions:
1. With paddle attachment, mix butter for 30 seconds. Add a 1/3 of the powdered sugar, mix on first speed for 1 minute. Add another 1/3 of the powdered sugar, mix another minute. Finally, add the last 1/3 of sugar, mix 1 minute.
2. Combine eggs, vanilla, and almond extract together, add to butter/sugar mixture. Mix for 30 seconds.
3. Add a 1/3 of the flour, mix 1 minute.
4. Scrape.
5. Add the next 1/3 of the flour, mix 2 minutes.
6. Scrape.
7. Add the final 1/3 of the flour, mix 3 minutes.
8. Refrigerate until able to be rolled out and cut into desired shapes.
