Sugar Cookies by the Busy Baker Bunny and my daughter Jen aka "Cookie Face"
Ingredients:- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (190 degrees C). Sift together flour, baking soda, and baking powder on parchment paper. Set aside.
- In mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, and place onto parchment paper covered cookie sheets. OR divide dough in half and flatten into 2 disks easy for quick chilling and rolling.
- Roll dough out to 1/4 inch think no thinner or the cookie edges will burn and you will be sad =o( The high heat allows the cookie to "puff" and the crumb is very tender and flaky and that is a good thing.
- Bake 5 to 8 minutes in the preheated oven, or until light golden. Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes before removing to cool on wire racks.
- Decorate using your favourite technique or just use sprinkles on balls rolled before baking.
- Be certain to have all your frosting tubes, tips, colours ready before you start to decorate or it just won't be fun =o)
