This buttery cookie is great for using with old fashioned cookie molds. Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
3 tablespoons water |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
1 egg yolk |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour and sugar. Cut in butter until a mealy consistency is reached. Add water, almond extract, and egg yolk; mix by hand and knead into a smooth ball. Wrap and refrigerate dough for up to 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll pieces of dough into 1 inch balls and press down into the cookie molds or small tart molds. Press so dough is all of the way up the side of the molds, then prick with a fork to keep them from puffing up and deforming during baking.
3. Bake cookies for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown. Cool cookies in molds on a wire rack for 10 minutes before carefully removing to cool completely.
