Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, cream cheese, and granulated sugar together until smooth.
- With the mixer running, add in the egg and then the almond extract.
- In a separate bowl, stir the flour, baking powder, and ¼ cup powdered sugar together.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry flour mixture to the already creamed mixture.
- Once smooth, remove the bowl from the mixer and cover. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to chill.
- Line a large sheet pan with nonstick parchment paper. Place the extra ¼ cup powdered sugar (for rolling) in a shallow bowl.
- Once chilled, use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to create a cookie dough ball and immediately roll the cookie dough ball fully in powdered sugar.
- Place powdered sugar covered cookie dough balls on the baking sheet, 6 at a time, and bake for 10-11 minutes. When they're no longer wet on top and are firm on the sides, they're done. We prefer them on the shorter cook time so they're extra gooey.
- Allow to cool on the sheet pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

GOOEY BUTTER COOKIES
As a native of St. Louis, I wanted to make a cookie version of the famous gooey butter cake. And although many gooey butter cake recipes use a cake mix, my cookies are made from scratch.-Julia Nouss, Richmond, Virginia
