Ingredients
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
3/4 cup ground almonds
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 egg yolk
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp almond extract
1/4 cup sliced almond, to garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F.
Combine flour, cornstarch, ground almonds and salt in a bowl and stir with a fork until uniform. Reserve.
Stir butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until well combined. Beat in egg yolk, vanilla and almond extract. Add reserved flour mixture one-third at a time and beat until incorporated.
Transfer mixture to a large piping bag with a ¾-in. star tip and pipe 1½-in.-diameter “kisses” onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press a sliced almond into top of each cookie. Bake for 13 to 15 min or until lightly golden. Let cool.
