Ingredients
Scale
1 cup Almond Paste
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
½ cup Granulated Sugar
½ cup Powdered Sugar
½ cup Butter, softened
1 large Egg
1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
