Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Roll dough into balls and slightly flatten onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
