Directions:

1️⃣ Prepare the Oven & Baking Sheet:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 🍪

2️⃣ Cream the Butter and Sugar:
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. 🧁

3️⃣ Add the Eggs and Extracts:
Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts for that festive flavor! 🍦🌰

4️⃣ Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. 🍞

5️⃣ Shape the Cookies:
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly using the bottom of a glass. 👩‍🍳

6️⃣ Bake & Cool:
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. ⏳

7️⃣ Make the Glaze & Decorate:
In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Dip the top of each cookie into the glaze and decorate with festive sprinkles. Let the glaze set before serving. ✨
