Ingredients: 1
c
Butter or margarine 1 1/2
c
Powdered sugar 1
Egg 1
t
Vanilla 1/2
ts
Almond extract 2 1/2
c
Flour 1
t
Soda 1
t
Cream of tartar
Directions:
Cream butter and sugar. Add egg, vanilla, almond extract. Mix well.
Add flour, soda, and cream of tartar until smooth. Chill dough 2-3
hours. Roll out to about 1/4" thickness. Cut dough with cookie
cutters. Bake on greased cookie sheet 7-8 minutes at 375~. These
cookies are sweet and they really don't need any frosting, but they
should be sprinkled with colored sugar before baking. They are very
pretty at Christmas time. I make large stars and sprinkle half of one
star with green sugar and the other half with red sugar.
