Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/2 cup shortening or butter
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup gumdrops fruit-flavored, chopped, or mini gumdrops

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°.
  2. Cream the butter or shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, followed by the almond extract.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
