Zubereitung von Wheat Germ Balls
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours). This makes the dough easier to handle.
- Once chilled, roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Place the 3/4 cup wheat germ in a shallow dish. Roll each dough ball in the wheat germ until completely coated.
- Place the coated balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
