INGREDIENTS

  •  1/2 cup butter (room temperature)
  •  1/2 cup granulated sugar
  •  1 small egg, unbeaten
  •  1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  •  1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Cream butter. Add sugar and beat well. Add egg and almond extract. Stir in flour.
  2. Place dough, covered, in the refrigerator at least 3 hours - or overnight.
  3. Take dough out of refrigerator and get ready to assemble cookies. The dough may be easier to handle after it has sat at room temperature for a few minutes.
  4. Turn on oven to 375F. Take a small ball of dough and press it into a sandbakkel tin. The dough should be about 1/16th of an inch thick. Repeat with remaining dough.
  5. Place filled tins on a cookie sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes, until golden brown.
  6. Remove from oven, tip upside down, and allow to cool slightly until comfortable to touch. Gently pinch the sides of the tin to remove the cookie
