Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs, followed by the vanilla and almond extracts.
- Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Divide the dough into equal portions based on the number of colors you'd like to use. Add gel food coloring to each portion and knead until color is evenly distributed.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls and coat each ball in powdered sugar.
- Arrange the cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- Let them cool for about 5 minutes on the sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
