Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 C white sugar
2/3 C unsalted butter (cold)
2/3 C shortening (room temp)
2 eggs
2 tsp almond extract
2 1/2 C cake flour
1 C all purpose flour
2 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
sugar in the raw (I like raw sugar for this, but any coarse sugar would work)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare baking sheet. Cream sugar, butter and shortening. Stir in eggs and almond extract. Combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt and add to butter/egg mixture. Stir to combine until dough forms. Form dough into walnut sized balls (I used a small cookie scoop) and roll in raw sugar. Place on prepared pan. Bake for 4 minutes. Open oven and quickly press each cookie to desired thickness with back of spoon. Bake for additional 4 minutes (8 minutes total). Remove to cooling rack. Allow to cool completely.
