Almond Shortbread Washboard Cookies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2

Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, and butter to a large bowl and beat with a hand or stand mixer until smooth and combined. Add eggs and mix until combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar, and whisk until there are no clumps and everything is combined.

Step 4

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the bowl with the sugars and butter, mixing as you go. Once combined, mix in the vanilla extract, almond extract, and almonds.

Step 5

Form the dough into medium-sized balls and place on a baking sheet. Then press them flat with a fork. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops start to turn slightly golden brown.
