Vanilla Almond Stamped Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter at room temperature
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 large egg
- 3.5 cups flour
Preparation
Set the rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 180°C
Prepare shallow-edged baking trays and line with parchment paper
In the mixer bowl, place butter and sugar, attach the paddle attachment, and mix on medium speed for several minutes until butter is light in color
Add vanilla, almond extract, and egg, then mix on medium speed until the egg is fully incorporated
Add flour and attach the dough hook or mixing paddle, then mix on low speed until a soft, cohesive dough forms
On a floured surface, place half of the dough and roll out to approximately 4 mm thick
Use a decorative stamp to imprint the design and a round cookie cutter of the same diameter to cut out circles, repeat with the remaining dough, and place the cookies on the prepared trays, leaving about 1 cm space between them
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the bottom is golden brown
