List of Ingredients



• 1/2 lb. butter, softened
  
• 2-1/2 cups flour, sifted
  
• 1/2 cup sugar
  
• 1 tsp vanilla
  
• 1 tsp almond extract
  
• 3 to 4 Tbsp powdered sugar
  






Instructions



1. Mix butter, flour, and sugar with a pie cutter until crumbly. Add vanilla and almond extract.
   
   
2. Roll dough into balls and place on a cookie sheet (they may be left this way or pressed down with a fork dipped in flour). Be sure to pull the fork toward you to keep dough from sticking to the fork.
   
   
3. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar run through a sifter while cookies are still warm.
   
   Makes approximately 2 dozen.
