A not too sweet sugar cookie. Use your favorite frosting- just substitute almond extract for the amount of vanilla extract - a good almond flavored crisp cookie.
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 lb butter, softened (1 stick)
1 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk (or water)
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Directions:
1. In medium bowl mix dry ingredients. Set aside.
2. In large bowl cream butter and sugar with a mixer until fluffy. Add egg, milk and almond extract and beat well.
3. Add the dry ingredients 1/3 at a time into butter sugar mixture, mixing until well blended.
4. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least a 1/2 an hour before rolling out.
5. Preheat oven to 360 degrees.
6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1/3 of the dough at a time. Roll to 1/8 inch thick and cut out with cookie cutters.
7. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet for 5-7 minutes. Do not allow to brown.
8. Cool on wire racks and frost with your favorite icing.
