Almond Butter Cookies

2C flour

1tsp Baking Powder

¼ tsp salt

1C Butter (room temperature)

2 egg yolks (save the white to make meringue cookies-yum)

½ tsp lemon extract

¾ tsp vanilla

¾ tsp almond extract

Heat oven to 350˚F

Mix extracts together. Sift flour – measure and sift again with baking powder and salt. Cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add yolks one at a time blend well. Gradually add the blended extracts.  Mix well.  Roll into 1” balls.  Place on ungreased cookie sheet 2” apart.  Gently press an x w/ fork dipped in water to prevent sticking.
