Easy to make almond-butter cookies, frosting optional. The flavor is delicate and very yummy. I am a novice in the kitchen and made these one night in about 30 min on a whim. The frosting hardens quickly, but it's easy to add water and microwave 15-30 seconds to soften it up again for spreading. I found this recipe on the back of the Publix sweet cream butter (unsalted) package; the credits on the package are "Publix Apron's Simple Meals"

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F Beat butter and sugar, in large bowl, with electric mixer on high speed until creamy. Add egg and almond extract, mixing well. Gradually add flour, mixing well.
- Rolldough into 1-inch balls (or bigger for bigger cookies). Place 2 inches (or adjust as appropriate) apart on greased baking sheet. Dip a flat-bottomed glass into sugar and flatten balls.
- Bake 10-12 minutes until bottom of cookies are golden brown. Cool 1 minute on baking sheet, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.
- To prepare frosting, combine sugar and almond extract until smooth. Stir in milk, as needed, until frosting is spreading consistency. Spread on each cookie; top with an almond slice.
