Almond Cookies
Cookie Ingredients:
1 Cup unsalted butter, soft but still chill
3/4 Cup sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 Cups AP flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
sliced almonds
Glaze Ingredients:
1/2 Cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 Tablespoon water
1. Preheat oven to 400*. In a bowl, cream the butter, sugar and almond extract. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture 2 Tablespoons at a time to be sure the ingredients are completely combined.
2. Roll into small balls and flatten slightly. They should look like thick checkers. Bake for 7 minutes on a parchment lined cookie sheet (the cookies will not look baked). Remove to cooling rack and place sliced almonds on top of each cookie.
3. For the glaze, combine the ingredients and drizzle on top of the almonds and cookies.
NOTE: The recipe said it would make 24 cookies. Apparently I made mine pretty small because I ended up with 70
