Almond Chocolate Chip Cookies

These chocolate chip cookies
don't have brown sugar in them
as most chocolate chip cookies do.
They are flavored with almond extract
as a nice variation from the usual.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips

Directions:
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar.
Beat in egg and almond extract
. Combine dry ingredients;
add to creamed mixture and mix well.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Drop by teaspoonfuls 2 in. apart
onto parchment lined baking sheets.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 12-15 minutes
or until edges are golden brown.
Remove to a wire rack to cool.
