Equipment

  • cookie cutters
  • silpat
  • cookie sheets
  • stand mixer
  • measuring cups and measuring spoons
  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 sticks of unsalted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Add sugar and room temperature butter to a mixer and cream together for a minute or two.
  • Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Beat the mixture on low until it has completely combined.
  • Now you can add the flour one cup at a time. If needed, scrape down the sides so everything is incorporated evenly. Keep out ¼ cup of the last cup of flour and watch the texture of the dough closely. The dough should come together completely without any crumbles in the mixing bowl.
  • On a clean work surface or silpat, pull out all of your dough and scrape out any left behind bits. No chilling required!
  • Gently kneed together for a minute and divide into 3 sections.
  • Working with ⅓ of your dough at a time, lightly dust your work surface with flour and dust your rolling pin.
  • Roll out your dough to an ⅛”-¼” thickness.
  • Cut out your cooking and place them on a nonstick cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes. *you will not see color on the edges, so don’t expect to see any changes.
  • Transfer the sugar cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely before icing, or over night if possible.


Notes

Recipe should yield 24-36 cookies depending on the size of your cutters.
