Ingredients

Pink sugar cookie almond icing

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F then line a baking sheet with parchement pape and set aside.
  • Cream the butter, oil, sugar, and powdered sugar in a large mixing bowl or a stand mixer.
  • Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the creamed butter mixture and mix until combined.
  • Add the flour, salt, cream of tartar and baking powder and mix until combined, using a large cookie scoop (¼ cup- 4 tbsp), scoop out 9 equally sized cookie balls, place on the prepared baking sheet then using your hand flatten to about ½ inch in thickness.
  • Bake for 9-10 minutes then cool on the baking sheet for 20 minutes before transferring to a wire rack fully before frosting. Don't worry if the cookies look underbaked, they will continue baking as they cool.

Make the pink almond sugar cookie frosting

  • In a large bowl or in a stand mixer bowl using a paddle attachement, cream the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined.
  • Add in the heavy cream and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  • Add in a tiny bit of pink gel food coloring using a toothpick, mix, then check the color. Add more if you want something brighter.
  • Generously spread the almond sugar cookie frosting on the chilled cookies and serve or chill some more before serving.

Notes

How to store these cookies?
Store these frosted sugar cookies in the fridge for up to 7 days. 
You can also freeze them in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Just place them in the freezer to thaw overnight before enjoying them!
Tips:
  • Make sure to use room temperature ingredients for this recipe– Room temperature ingredients are crucial for these cookies because that will affect how your cookies flatten out once you smash them!
  • Don’t flatten your cookies too much- When you smash your cookies, you want them to be at about ⅓-1/2 inch flat, nothing less. This will keep them super soft and melt in your mouth in the center!
  • Let your cookie cool fully before topping them with the frosting- Make sure that your cookies are fully cooled down before frosting or the frosting will melt and you will end up with a soupy mess and not so pretty cookies!
