The Best Valentine Sugar Cookies
 
   
"This basic sugar cookie recipe is subtly flavored with a dash of almond extract, and stands up to rolling, shaping, baking and decorating. Sugar cookies should be baked until just golden on the bottom."
Ingredients:
7 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 cups shortening
3 teaspoons almond extract
1 cup milk
3 eggs
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. /Mix in shortening. Once the shortening is well blended, stir almond flavoring and milk into the dough at the same time, followed by eggs. Roll out dough onto a floured surface, using a floured rolling pin. Roll the dough thick. Cut out cookies and arrange them on a cookie sheet.
3. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 8 to 10 minutes, or just until bottom is golden.

Yummy! The Almond extract would be great in these cookies, I use it in place of vanilla in some recipies such as in the glaze for strawberry pie, and everyone wonderrs why yours is the best! Laugh

Life is too important to be taken too seriously.

The person who upsets you the most is your best teacher, because they bring you face to face with who you are.
