This recipe I revised from my grandma's Christmas angel roll-out cookies. They are sort of cakey, but this can be reduced by omitting half of the cream of tartar, though I prefer them thick and soft. Top with your favorite cream cheese or basic cookie frosting. I find it's best with almond extract and coconut on top. Enjoy! Ingredients:
2/3 cup butter, softened |
1 cup granulated sugar, or more to taste |
2 eggs, beaten |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 1/4 teaspoons cream of tartar |
1/4 cup milk |
4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 pinch salt (optional) |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until fluffy. Add 1 egg, allowing it to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next with the vanilla extract.
3. Dissolve cream of tartar in milk; beat into the butter mixture. Add 4 cups flour and pinch of salt; beat until doughy.
4. Spread 1 cup flour onto a flat work surface. Roll the dough out on the prepared surface; cut out in desired shapes until all dough is used.
5. Bake on non-stick baking sheets in preheated oven until cookies are set in the middle, about 12 minutes.
