Ingredients
  

Dough:

  • 6 Tbsp butter softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ tsp almond extract
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • 1 ¼ cups flour
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt

Filling:

  • cup whipping cream
  • 3 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • ¼ tsp almond extract optional
  • Cherry pie filling

Instructions
 

  • Cream butter and sugar in a mixing bowl till creamy. Add egg, almond extract, and vanilla. Beat well.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to creamed mixture and stir till well combined.
  • Roll into 1" balls and place in well greased mini muffin pans. Make an indentation in the dough with your thumb or the back of a teaspoon.
  • Bake at 350° for about 10 minutes, or till lightly browned on the edges. Use a spoon to press the dough down in the middle, forming a cup. Remove to cooling racks and cool completely.

For filling:

  • Beat whipping cream till stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  • Beat cream cheese till smooth. Beat in powdered sugar, vanilla, and almond extract. Add whipped cream, and beat till well combined.
  • Fill cups with filling. I piped it in, but you can just spoon it in if you prefer.
  • Top with cherry pie filling. Serve immediately.
