Instructions

  1. In your stand mixer add the eggs on high speed for 4-6 minutes until light and foamy.
  2. In a food processor add the flour, sugar, and baking powder, and pulse until mixed.
  3. Add in the shortening, almond extract, and vanilla extract and pulse until just combined in small crumbs (do not just run the food processor).
  4. Pour the eggs through the food processor chute slowly while pulsing until combined and smooth.
  5. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, covered with plastic wrap.
  6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  7. Roll 36 small 1" balls of cooking dough and place them onto two baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  8. Cook for 12-14 minutes until the bottoms are barely browning.
  9. While the cookies are baking mix the powdered sugar, milk, almond extract, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  10. When cookies come out of the oven dip them gently in the glaze with a fork, letting excess glaze drip and place on a wire rack to let excess glaze drip off.
  11. Immediately top with 1/2 teaspoon or so of sprinkles before the glaze hardens.
  12. Let dry completely before storing in airtight containers.
