Cornflower Confetti Sugar Cookies

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 egg yolk
  • ¼ dried culinary cornflower petals
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 12 ounces white chocolate, melted
  • 2 tablespoons dried culinary cornflower petals

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
    In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine butter and sugars together, beating for 2 minutes. Add in the extracts, egg yolk, and cornflowers, beating for 1 minute. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add flour mixture to bowl and mix until well combined.
    Using a 1½ tablespoon cookie scoop, drop cookie dough 2 inches apart onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 10–11 minutes. Allow cookies to cool.
    In a microwave safe bowl, melt white chocolate at low power for 1–2 minutes, until smooth (stirring often to prevent scorching). Dip cookies into melted white chocolate and sprinkle with more cornflowers. Allow chocolate to fully set. Can be stored for up to a week in an airtight container.
