Dessert: Romeo's Sighs and Juliet's Kisses

Recipe by /contributors/tracey-zabar In Verona, Italy, you can buy bags of I baci di Romeo e Giulietta—chocolate and almond cookies honoring Shakespeare's mythical, star-crossed lovers. I prefer to sandwich these two types of cookies together by sealing

Ingredients

4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted

Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Line two half-sheet pans with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar. Add the almond extract. Add the salt and flour, beating just until each addition is incorporated.
