Cómo preparar Basic Sugar Cookies
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the sugar gradually in three additions.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating in three additions until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to 3 days).
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough to ¼ inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes.
- Place cookies 1 inch apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Rotate baking sheets halfway through baking for even browning.
- Let cookies cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, decorate with your favorite icing and sprinkles!
