These soft and buttery cookies have a secret ingredient that gives a bakery-like flavor to both the cookies and frosting. Make them for any special occasion (or no reason at all!). You’ll love them.

Secret ingredient
If you’ve been around here for a while you know my go-to “secret” ingredient: almond extract. Adding almond extract to the cookie dough and the frosting gives these cookies an extra layer of flavor. They still taste predominantly of vanilla but a touch of almond extract is what sets them apart from other cookie recipes.
