Guava Almond Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 tablespoon almond extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons colored sugar, or as desired
  • 2 tablespoons sprinkles, or as desired
  • 2 tablespoons guava paste, or as desired
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2
Take white sugar, butter, and shortening, and blend them in a bowl using an electric mixer until you achieve a smooth consistency. Introduce almond extract into the mixture to enhance its flavor.
3
Gradually incorporate flour into the dough, working in small batches and kneading until everything is fully incorporated.
4
Form the dough into walnut-sized balls, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie on your baking sheets. Create a small indentation in the center of each cookie using a wooden spoon handle.
5
Place colored sugar, sprinkles, and guava paste in the center of each cookie, creating a visually appealing design.
6
Bake your cookies in the preheated oven for 16 to 20 minutes, or until they are lightly golden brown.
