Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp almond extract
1/4 cup colorful sprinkles or sugar crystals optional

Preheat oven to 350F 175C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until combined.
Roll the dough into small balls and place them on the baking sheet. Gently flatten each ball with the back of a spoon.
