Below is the best sugar cookie recipe I have ever made. It turns out perfect every time I use it.
Sugar Cookies
Cream together:
1 cup room temperature unsalted butter
2/3 cup granulated sugar
Once the mixture is light and fluffy beat in 1 Egg. It's best of the egg is room temperature. Then add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl combine:
2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt.
Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
Chill the dough at least 1-2 hours before rolling out. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees until cookies are lightly golden around the bottom edges.
These are too cute... I wish I was getting a bag of brightly colored sugar cookies!
ReplyDeleteThose look so yummy! Isn't it crazy how a little bit of clear cellophane and a cute bow really make a delicious cookie even more glamorous?! What type of frosting did you use for them?
ReplyDeleteI know, I keep cellophane and ribbon in my kitchen drawer. LOL My friends were so excited. It's so nice to bring some smiles with cookies.
ReplyDeleteThe frosting is a quick mix of powdered sugar, orange juice and a little bit of lemon extract. I just didn't have the patience to make royal icing this time. I usually save that for Christmas.
These look great- your friends and family are so lucky to get cookies for a surprise. Love the colors :)
