Sprinkled Sugar Cookies

1 cup margarine
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 Tbs vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond extract
2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
Sprinkles for rolling

Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add in egg, vanilla and almond extract. Mix until the egg and extracts are combined. Carefully add in dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.

Pour sprinkles into a bowl or plate. Scoop out dough balls and roll them in the sprinkles. Place the sprinkle covered dough balls on baking sheet and lightly press down on the top of each cookie to flatten them a bit. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden around the edges.

*(Cookies taste best the next day when they are completely cooled.)
