Crisp Almond Cookies

1½ cups butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup sugar

2 large eggs

2 tsps. vanilla extract

2¼ cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp. baking power

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 cup finely chopped almonds

Cream together butter and sugars, until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.

Add in eggs and vanilla and beat again.

Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture to dough, one third at a time until all added. Stir in almonds.

Using a small cookie scoop, place dough on a parchment lined baking sheet three inches apart (these cookies spread.) Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 8-9 minutes. Until edges turn golden.

Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to racks to cool completely.
