Author: Granny from A Mom's Take
Recipe type: Cookie
Cuisine: danish
Serves: dozen
Ingredients:
- 1 cup flour (I used ½ cup almond flour and ½ cup fresh ground spelt flour)
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ½ cup confectioners sugar ( powdered sugar)
- 1 tsp Nielsen-Massey pure almond extract
- ½ cup butter
Directions:
- I creamed together butter and sugar then added the Nielsen-Massey pure almond extract. Then stir in all the other ingredients until smooth. I then used a small scoop and made 1" balls, this recipe only made 13 cookies. It was the perfect amount for us, We did not want a bunch of cookies sitting around for us to eat. This also makes a nice plate of cookies to offer for tea with a friend or 4.
- After the cookies were on the sheet I used a fork to press them out a bit. These cookies spread and turn into a thin crispy cookie. If you want them to not spread so thin, you can add a couple more tablespoons of flour to the batch. Bake at 350 degree's for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand a bit before removing from pan.
