These Vanilla Almond Butter Cookies are a delightful twist on the classic butter cookie, featuring a hint of almond for an elevated flavor.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the creamed mixture and beat until well combined.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
Gradually mix in the flour until a soft dough forms.
Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Use a small cookie scoop for uniform sizes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Keep an eye on the cookies to prevent overbaking.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Cooling on the sheet helps the cookies set before moving them.
Serve the cookies with your favorite beverage and enjoy!
These cookies are perfect for sharing or as a delightful treat for yourself.
