ALMOND POPPYSEED SHORTBREAD COOKIES

Steps:

• With an electric stand or hand mixer on medium speed, beat together the butter, sugar, almond extract, and salt until smooth.
• Turn mixer to low and add the flour and 2 teaspoons poppyseeds, mixing just until the dough forms.
• Place the dough on a piece of waxed or parchment paper sprinkled with a little flour. Put a little flour on your hands and gently roll the dough into a 1 1/2 inch diameter log.
• Sprinkle the 1/4 cup poppyseeds on the paper and roll the log in the poppyseeds, pressing gently, until the log is well-coated with the seeds.
• Wrap the log tightly in the paper and twist the ends.
• Refrigerate until firm, about an hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Unwrap the log, and slice with a serrated knife about 3/8 inch thick. If the dough is crumbly, wait a few minutes for it to soften slightly and try again.
• Place slices about 1 inch apart on your baking sheet and bake until lightly golden around the edges, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let sit for about five minutes, then move the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt until smooth.
• Carefully dip the tops of each cookie in the glaze, then set back on the wire rack.
• Grab a handful of almonds and, using your hands, crumble the sliced almonds directly over the tops of the cookies.
• Allow glaze and almonds to set, about 30 minutes. Gently shake any excess almonds off the cookies, and serve.
