Delicious sugar cookies, especially if you use the vanilla and almond extracts together. Perfect for roll-and-cut Christmas cookies. Can also be formed into logs for slice-and-bake cookies. Thanks to PetitFour for the original recipe! Prep time includes chilling time. Ingredients:
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup unsalted butter, room temp |
2 cups sugar |
2 large eggs |
1 tablespoon vanilla (or half vanilla and half almond extract) |
Directions:
1. Mix dry ingredients in separate bowl. 2. Using stand mixer or hand mixer, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. 3. Beat in eggs one at a time, scraping down bowl each time, then vanilla and/or almond extract. 4. Add flour mixture gradually and mix at low speed until comes together. 5. Turn out onto flat surface. 6. Knead a couple of times just until smooth. 7. Pat into a flat disk, wrap in plastic and chill until firm enough to roll, about one hour. 8. Roll and cut as desired. 9. Bake at 350 about 8-10 minutes on parchment-lined sheets. |
