One of the things I love about this recipe is that it doesn’t make a large quantity. There’s enough to satisfy a Cookie Monster’s craving - but not enough for gorging. These cookies freeze beautifully and thaw in a flash. My grand-daughters adore them, just as my children loved them when their grandmother made them! I guarantee they’ll be an instant family favorite at your house! This cookie dough freezes extremely well. I make and bake just a few, popping the rest of the dough into the freezer.
½ cup butter or margarine, softened
¼ cup sugar
½ tsp. almond flavoring
1 cup flour
Preheat oven to 325 F. Cream butter or margarine, adding sugar gradually until completely blended and no graininess remains. Add almond flavoring, Stir in flour a little at a time, blending to the consistency of pastry dough. Roll into 1-inch balls (a melon baller does a superb job).
Place 1-inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Flatten cookies with the base of a lightly floured glass. Flattened cookies will be about 1/2-inch apart.
