Instructions

Soften butter and mix with sugar till well blended. Add eggs, baking powder and extract then slowly add flour.

Preheat oven to 350

I use a small ice cream scoop, or you can measure one rounded tablespoon of dough and place on a greased cookie sheet. Cookies do not spread, so you can place them close together.

Bake for approx 8-10 minutes... remove when cookie is still light in color, but does not bounce back when touched. These cookies can dry out if you bake till golden brown, so be careful.

Cool on a rack
