Sarah wanted a sugar cookie and had VERY definite expectations for it's taste, texture, everything (cookies are her favorite food). So I created this, and it was a success! Ingredients:
2 3/4 cups flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1 cup butter (salted works fine) |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 large egg |
sugar, for rolling (i use coarse sugar) |
Directions:
1. Set out butter to bring temperature down.
2. Preheat oven to 365 degrees.
3. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
4. Beat egg lightly.
5. Beat butter in a electric mixer on low for 1 minute.
6. Add sugar slowly to butter while mixing.
7. Add vanilla to butter (still mixing!).
8. Add egg to the butter-sugar mixture while mixing. Scrape the sides of the mixing bowl and mix a little more to ensure everything is mixing well.
9. Add flour mixture in batches to the cookie dough. Once it is all incorporated, scrape the bowl again and mix a tad more.
10. Roll cookie dough into 1 1/4 inch balls (give or take, depending on your cookie size preference), roll in sugar, and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
11. Bake cookies for 8 - 9 minutes.
12. Cool for 1 - 2 minutes on cookie sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
13. Serve!
