List of Ingredients

1 cup butter, Do Not Substitute
1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp almond extract
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cream of tartar
Granulated sugar


Recipe

Mix thoroughly the butter, confectioners' sugar, egg, vanilla, and the almond extract. Blend in the flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar. Cover and chill for 2 to 3 hours.
Heat the oven to 375 F. Divide the dough in half. Roll each half to 1/4 inch thick on a lightly floured cloth covered board. (I use a lightly floured cutting board). Cut into desired shapes. Sprinkle with granulated sugar. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes or until lightly golden brown on the edges.
Amount depends on the size of cookie cutter used.
