Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt fine sea salt
- 5 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup butter softened, unsalted
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons almond extract
- 1 egg
- 1 cup powdered sugar icing
- 30 candied cherries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Sift or whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a large mixing bowl with an electric hand mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Cream in the sugar for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the almond extract and eggs, mixing until combined.
- Slowly add the flour mixture until just mixed. Do not overmix.
- Spray a 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop with cooking spray and then dollop heaping mounds onto the cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Reapply cooking spray as needed.
- Bake each batch for 11-2 minutes or until cookies are set. There will be no brown, but slightly cracked and springy when touched.
- Remove and immediately make a well in each hot cookie using the back of a 1/4 teaspoon. Allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 5 more minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool fully.
- When cooled, spoon a small amount of powdered sugar icing into each well. Top with a candied cherry while still tacky.
