Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy.
- Mix in the egg, vanilla, almond extract, and green food dye until fully combined.
- Sift in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Fold together with a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms.
