Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Using a mixer, beat at medium-high speed, until light. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt; Add to the large bowl and mix until well incorporated. Add the almond extract and the heavy cream and mix again.
- Turn the dough out on a floured surface and form into a ball. Cut into 4 portions and shape each into a disk, about 4-inch in diameter and ¼" thick. Refrigerate 10 minutes.
- Place dough rounds on a baking sheet. Brush tops with beaten egg and sprinkle some pearl sugar on top. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven. Lower the oven temperature to 300°F.
- Cut each round into 10 slices, then cut each slice in half (except the short ends). Return to the oven and bake 20 minutes for crispy cookies or 12 minutes for chewier cookies. The baking time also depends on the size of the cookies, so keep an eye on them while they bake!
- Makes about 60 cookies.
