Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup butter, softened
1 ½ cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
¼ cup granulated sugar for decoration

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and stir in the vanilla and almond extract. Combine the flour, baking soda and cream of tartar; blend into the creamed mixture. Cover and chill for at least two hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Divide the dough into two parts. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece of the dough out to 3/16 inch in thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart onto greased cookie sheets. Sprinkle cookies with plain or colored granulated sugar.
  • Bake for 8 minutes in the preheated oven, until lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

These cookies are really good! They're soft and chewy, and the frosting is perfect. I'll definitely be making these again.

I'm not a fan of the frosting on these cookies. It's too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try making them without the frosting next time.

I had a hard time getting the dough to roll out. It was too sticky. I ended up adding a little more flour, and that helped.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These cookies are a bit more work than some other recipes, but they're worth it! The dough is a little sticky, but it's easy to work with if you chill it for a bit before rolling it out.
