  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened Make sure it's at room temperature.
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract Can substitute half with lemon extract for extra flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and cream of tartar.

Notes

For optimal results, ensure softened butter is at room temperature and watch baking time closely to prevent over-baking. Store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for up to three months.
