Description
Delightful cookies decorated with cute bunny “buttons,” perfect for Easter festivities or any spring gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Decorative candies (for buttons)
- Colored icing (for decoration)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder; set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and white sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the egg, along with the vanilla and almond extracts, mixing until well combined. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients until combined, creating a soft dough.
- Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls and place them onto ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten each ball slightly with the bottom of a glass and press decorative candies into the center to resemble buttons. Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely. Once cooled, decorate with colored icing as desired.
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Freeze for longer storage.
