Tyler's Grandma's Sugar Cookies

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
1 egg
3 cups flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt

Preheat the oven to 350˚F. 
In an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth.  Mix in the extracts and egg.  In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.  Add a little at a time into the wet ingredients until fully incorporated.  Next, divide the dough in about four batches.  Then, roll it out on a floured Silpat mat to about a ¼-inch thick. Press shapes into cookie and then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.  Bake for about 8-10 minutes or until golden around the edges.
