Ingredients
  

Ingredients for the cookie:

  • ¾ cup 1.5 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 4 oz cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp almond extract
  • 3 cups All-purpose flour scooped and leveled
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt

Ingredients for the Almond Buttercream Icing

  • ½ cup 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 2 tbsp whole milk
  • Pink food coloring gel

Instructions
 

For The Cookies:

  • Preheat the oven to 350
  • Line sheet pans with parchment paper and set aside
  • Cream butter, cream cheese and granulated sugar for 5-6 mins until fluffy
  • Add in eggs one at a time followed by the vanilla and almond extracts and beat until well incorporated.
  • Add in the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Use a large cookie scooper or ice cream scoop to scoop the cookie dough onto the pan.
  • Roll the dough into balls and press down to about ¾ inch thickness.
  • Bake for 13-15 minutes until edges are golden brown (baking time may vary so keep an eye on them)
  • Remove from oven and let rest on baking racks for 15 minutes.
  • Place on cooling rack to finish cooling. You can also place them into the fridge so you can eat them chilled.

For The Frosting:

  • Place butter into a mixer and beat until smooth (about 3 minutes).
  • Add in powdered sugar, vanilla, almond extract and 1 Tablespoon milk (possibly two, see note below)
  • Beat on high for 4 mins
  • Spread the icing to the top of cooled cookies
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • The dough will look like cake batter prior to adding in the dry ingredients.  That’s okay, it will look like a dough after the flour is added.  It should NOT be loose or sticky dough.
  • These cookies don’t really spread, but they will be a puffy and fluffy cookie.
  • The amount of milk being added to the cream cheese icing will be determined by the weather.
  • For climates with more moisture in the air (or if its raining while making this) you will only need 1 Tbsp of milk. For drier climates, you will probably need both.

    • Nutrition information is a rough estimate only; actual values will vary based on the exact ingredients used and amount of recipe prepared.
