Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 Stick of butter softened
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Corn Starch
  • ¼ cup Granulated sugar
  • ½ cup Light brown sugar
  • 1 Egg (room temp)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla paste or vanilla extract (I liked the recipe with vanilla paste)
  • ½ teaspoon Almond Extract
  • ½ cup Sliced Almonds
  • Powered Sugar (sprinkle on the cookies after they're cooled)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees
  • In your mixing bowl, mix together the softened butter, sugar, and brown sugar until it fluffs up.
  • Next, add in your egg, vanilla extract and almond extract until combined.
  • As this is mixing, in a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and corn starch. These dry ingredients will be added to the wet mixture ½ cup at a time. Mix everything together and use your spatula to make sure you're scraping the bowl as your mix so everything is blended together.
  • Use your cookie scoop to form your cookie dough balls. Roll those balls into the sliced almonds.
  • Cook at 350 for 13 minutes. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar once the cookies are cool and enjoy!

Notes

  1. You can swap the almonds out with a nut-free option
  2. You can also use a healthier sugar alternative like cane sugar or Stevia
