Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.

In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy for about 3-4 minutes.

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly before adding the next egg, then stir in both extracts.

Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gently until a thick dough forms.

Divide the dough, add gel food coloring to each part, knead gently, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Roll the dough into tablespoon-sized balls and coat them generously in powdered sugar.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are cracked and edges set, with soft centers.

Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
