1
 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated sugar cookies
1/2
 cup all-purpose flour
1/2
 teaspoon almond extract
1
 tablespoon granulated sugar
Filling
2
 cups powdered sugar
1/4

DIRECTIONS

1 Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, break up cookie dough. Stir or knead in flour and almond extract until well blended. 2 Shape dough into 180 (1/2-inch) balls. Place balls 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Press bottom of glass dipped into granulated sugar on each ball until 1/4 inch thick; prick top of each with a fork. 3 Bake 6 to 8 minutes until set but not brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes. 4 Meanwhile, in small bowl, beat filling ingredients with electric mixer on low speed until smooth and creamy. Spread about 1 teaspoon filling on bottoms of half of the cookies. Top each with another cookie, bottom side down; press gently. Store in refrigerator.
For a more festive platter, add a drop of food color to the filling. For more sparkle, use coarse granulated sugar.
