Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a stand mixer, combine the butter and sugar, beating on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, which will take about 3 minutes.
Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and almond extract, mixing on low until the mixture is smooth, around 30 seconds.
Gradually mix in the baking soda, salt, and flour until just combined.
Scoop large balls of dough, using a ¼ cup cookie scoop for uniformity.
Place 6-7 dough balls on the prepared baking sheets and bake for 11-14 minutes until the edges are lightly golden and the tops have some crackling, being careful not to over-bake.
In a bowl, beat together the cream cheese and 2 tablespoons of butter until smooth, then mix in vanilla, a pinch of salt, and powdered sugar until well combined.
Dice your fresh fruit into small pieces and arrange on top of the cooled cookies after frosting.

Notes

Be careful with baking time to maintain the chewy texture of the cookies.
You can use any fresh fruit of your choice for topping—berries, kiwi, and bananas work well!
Frost the cookies right before serving for the best experience.
