I have experimented with tons of sugar cookie recipes. Some come out too flat, some come out bland. I finally figured out the perfect recipe. It includes both granulated sugar and powdered sugar. Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/4 cup powdered sugar |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, mix butter and white sugar till smooth. Add powdered sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix well.
2. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Add flour mixture to butter mixture slowly. Mix well.
3. Cover, and chill dough for at least one hour or overnight.
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out dough on powdered sugared surface (you can use flour too). Roll out dough to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cut into shapes with any cookie cutter. Place cookies 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
5. Bake 7-9 minutes in preheated oven. Cool completely.
