Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease or line a half sheet pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the butter and sugar until combined. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract; mix well.
Gradually incorporate the flour and baking powder until the dough holds together when squeezed.
Scoop dough using a large cookie scoop (about 3 tablespoons each) and roll into balls. Flatten gently on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for 5 minutes.
Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are lightly golden. Cool on a wire rack.
For the frosting, combine all ingredients in a bowl and beat until smooth. Frost cooled cookies generously and top with fresh fruit.
