Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together cubed butter and sugar until fluffy. Add egg and extracts; mix until smooth.
In another bowl, whisk flour and baking powder; gradually add to wet ingredients until well combined.
Scoop tablespoon-sized dough onto prepared sheets, leaving space between each cookie. Bake for about 10 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
