Would like a sugar cookie recipe please!!!
I want to make the roll out dough kind of sugar cookies, I have never made them like this way before.HELP!!! lol Hunter and I are gonna decorate them with frosting and sprinkles and such!! He loves to help lol And he is going to take them to school for their snack this week. Mommys big boy. TIA
Perfect Sugar Cookies 1 ½ cups sifted confectioners' (powdered) sugar 1 cup butter or margarine (not soft spread) 1 teaspoon almond flavoring 2 ½ cups self-rising flour 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Allow stick of butter to reach room temperature. Mix with sugar. Add vanilla, egg, and almond flavoring; mix well. Stir in flour, small amounts at a time; blend well. Cover and refrigerate 2-3 hours. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove half the dough from the refrigerator, keeping the other half chilled until ready to use. Roll 1/4 inch thick on floured board. The thinner the roll, the crispier the cookie. Thicker cookies will have a softer texture. To cut, dip cookie cutter or top of drinking glass into flour. Shake off excess and cut with steady pressure. Cut as many cookies from each rolling as possible because too much handling toughens dough. Place each cookie on lightly greased cookie sheet. Repeat with second batch of dough. Bake 7-8 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately take from oven and remove cookies to wire rack. Makes about 5 dozen cookies. When cool, ice or decorate as desired.
Thanks, Bea! I am going to make these for Grant tomorrow. How do they turn out when you cut them out really thick? P.S... I love how you format your recipes on the board. They are perfect for printing out.
Just thinking though... I don't have any self-rising flour so I think I'll add a teaspoon of baking powder.
Thanx Bea these cookies were a big hit at ds school today, we made them last nite cut them out frosted and decorated them. YUMMMMY I surprised him and his classmates with cookies and a gallon of milk , they loved it, thanx again Brooke
Missy, they turn out more cake-like when you cut them out really thick. I hope you enjoy them.
I'm so glad they enjoyed them Brooke. I love to share recipes. MY FAVORITE CHRITMAS COOKIES ARE MONSTER COOKIES. These are soooooo good!!!
