Bake in the preheated oven until browned around the edges, 11 to 13 minutes. Cool on cookie sheet for 2 minutes; remove cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease baking sheets. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
Step 3

Add eggs one at a time; beat in vanilla extract and almond extract with last egg. Mix in flour mixture until just incorporated.
