1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
1 egg
3 cups flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
In an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Mix in the extracts and egg. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add a little at a time into the wet ingredients until fully incorporated. Next, divide the dough in about four batches. Then, roll it out on a floured Silpat mat to about a ¼-inch thick. Press shapes into cookie and then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 8-10 minutes or until golden around the edges.
