Holy Yum are these good! I LOVE all things almond and these do not disappoint!
Cookies
1 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
3 teaspoons water (I added more water to give them a 'lighter' glaze)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
3 teaspoons water (I added more water to give them a 'lighter' glaze)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a bowl blend the butter, sugar, and almond extract, you'll know you're doing it right if it smells heavenly. In a separate bowl mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the flour mixture 2 Tablespoons at a time to the butter mixture until completely combined. I found this step odd, but I did it anyway.
Roll into small balls and flatten slightly. Cook for 7 minutes (they will not look done) on a lightly greased pan. Cool cookies until they are just warm and place sliced almonds on top of each cookie.
For the glaze: Combine powdered sugar, almond extract, and water. Drizzle a spoonful of glaze on top of the almonds and cookie. ENJOY! So stinken good! I thought about adding a bit of lime juice to the glaze to maybe give it even more of a kick, but we didn't so maybe next time!
