Ingredients:
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons buttermilk
  • gel food coloring optional
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar for rolling

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350F 175C

Line baking sheets with parchment paper

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and baking powder

In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy

Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined

If desired, separate the dough into portions and add gel food coloring to each portion

Add 1 tablespoon of buttermilk at a time to the dough, mixing well after each addition, until the dough reaches a soft and slightly sticky consistency

Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes

Shape the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and roll them in granulated sugar

Place the sugar-coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie

Using a flat-bottomed glass or measuring cup, gently press down on each dough ball to flatten slightly

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely

Enjoy these delicious Swig Sugar Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage
