Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and powdered sugar.
- Beat in the eggs, vanilla, and almond extracts.
- Stir in the flour. The dough will still be sticky at this point.
- Cover and refrigerate for an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and prepare baking sheets by either lining them with parchment paper or spraying them with non-stick cooking spray.
- Roll the cookie dough out on a floured surface.
- The dough may be a little sticky at first, just sprinkle the top of the dough so the rolling pin doesn't stick.
- Roll out to 1/4 inch thick and cut out in desired shapes.
- If you are going to sprinkle the cookies with sanding sugar instead of frosting, do so before baking pressing the sanding sugar down onto the dough slightly to make them stick.
- Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes. Larger cookies may take longer.
- The cookies shouldn't brown except for on the very bottom edges very lightly.
- Cool completely before frosting.
- Store in an airtight container with wax paper in-between the layers of cookies.
