My favorite sugar cookie recipe! I used 1/2 tsp. almond extract and spooned the dough out using a small cookie scoop. These are delectable! Ingredients:
3/4 cup margarine |
1/4 cup cream cheese (4 oz) |
1 1/4 cups white sugar |
3 large egg yolks |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract (may increase to 1 tsp.) |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Cream together butter, cream cheese and sugar.
3. Beat in egg yolks, vanilla and almond extracts.
4. Add flour, baking soda and cream of tartar. Stir well.
5. Drop by rounded teaspoonsful onto ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle with sugar. Don't flatten. (I use parchment paper.).
6. Bake 12 to 14 minutes until tops are cracked and just turning light brown.
7. Cool for one minute on cookie sheet before transferring to rack or waxed paper to cool completely.
