Instructions
1
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
2
Add the large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, and then incorporate the almond extract until fully combined.
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed butter and sugar mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
5
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of the dough onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
6
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
7
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
