Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup (166g) salted butter (softened)
- 3/4 cup (173g) granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/3 cups (354g) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup (56g) salted butter (softened) [for frosting]
- 1 1/2 cups (161g) powdered sugar
- 1/8 – 1/4 tsp almond extract
- 1 – 3 tbsp heavy whipping cream
- pink food coloring
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner. Set aside.
- Cream together the butter and sugar with either an electric hand mixer or stand mixer for 1 minute until light and fluffy.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl and add in the eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
- Add in the flour and baking powder, mix until a soft dough forms.
- Portion out your dough using 1 1/2 tbsp of dough for each cookie. Roll into a ball and then flatten just slightly. Place on the prepared cookie sheet and repeat with remaining dough.
- Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 9-11 minutes until the centers no longer look wet. Pull them out before they turn brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely on the pan.
- Make the frosting by creaming the softened butter until smooth, then adding in the powdered sugar alternating with the extracts and heavy cream until smooth.
- Use pink food coloring to dye the frosting, adding a little at a time for desired color.
- Frost each cookie and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use room-temperature butter and eggs for a smoother dough. Measure flour accurately to achieve the best results.
