Ingredients

For the Cookies:

• ½ cup butter, softened
• ¼ cup oil
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 egg, at room temperature
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ teaspoon almond extract
• 2 & ⅓ cups flour
• ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar (optional)
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder

For the Pink Sugar Cookie Almond Icing:

• ½ cup butter, softened
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream, cold
• ¼ teaspoon almond extract (use another ¼ teaspoon for a stronger almond flavor)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pink gel food coloring

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Cookies

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream together the softened butter, oil, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.

Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients

1. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the butter mixture. Mix until everything is well combined.

Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients

1. Gradually add the flour, salt, cream of tartar (if using), and baking powder to the wet ingredients. Mix until fully incorporated and a dough forms.

Step 4: Shape the Cookies

1. Using a large cookie scoop (about ¼ cup or 4 tablespoons), scoop out 9 equally sized cookie dough balls.
2. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
3. Flatten each cookie to about ½ inch thickness with your hand.

Step 5: Bake the Cookies

1. Bake the cookies for 9-10 minutes. They should look slightly underbaked—this is normal as they will continue baking while they cool.
2. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 20 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 6: Prepare the Pink Almond Sugar Cookie Frosting

1. While the cookies are cooling, make the frosting. In a large bowl or stand mixer, cream together the softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined.
2. Add the cold heavy cream and beat on medium speed until the frosting is light and fluffy.
3. Using a toothpick, add a tiny bit of pink gel food coloring to the frosting. Mix well and adjust the color to your preference.

Step 7: Frost the Cookies

1. Generously spread the frosting over the cooled cookies.
2. Serve immediately or chill the cookies further before serving for an extra cold treat.
