Smell Cookies

2 1/2 c. flour
1 c sugar
1/2 tsp soda
1 c butter
1 slightly beaten egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp almond extract

Preheat oven to 325 f.

Cream flour and sugar. Add egg, extracts and beat. Mix soda with flour and add to butter mixture. Incorporate the last part with hands.

Roll into 1" balls and place on ungreased baking sheet or parchment. Leave at least 1" between as cookies spread. Bake 15 - 18 minutes but do not let get brown. Cool on rack. Cookies remain chewy.
