Butter Cream Frosting~
for Almond Sugar Cookies




Instead of the almond extract, you could add whatever flavoring you like. Mint, orange, the possibilities are endless.

1/2 cube butter, softened
3 1/2 to 4 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Cream the butter, add the powdered sugar then the almond extract. If the consistency is too thick add some milk (too much almond extract would make the cookies too strong). The recipe for the cookies called for a thick consistency. I prefer the frosting a little thin, almost like a glaze. Make it to your liking. Enjoy!
