We always call these the anemic cookies because they are very pale looking but, they are very tasty. Post in commemoration of Rebecca and Shelah's Boston Marathon 2009 run.
1 c. of butter
3/4 c white sugar (1/4 c. for rolling)
1 egg
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 T. and 1 t. almond extract.
Cream butter, sugar, and extract. Add egg, mix well. Stir in flour. Roll into balls. Roll balls in sugar. Place on cookie sheet bake for 7-9 minutes at 375.
For festive variations you can roll them in colored sugar
you can also sub. vanilla, or lemon extract.
