Comment préparer Light Sugar Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Adjust oven racks to the middle position.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or foil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined (about 30-60 seconds).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined (about 30-60 seconds). Do not overmix.
- Place the remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar in a shallow dish. Using a tablespoon, scoop out level tablespoons of dough and roll into balls.
- Roll the dough balls in the sugar to coat and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 1/2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake one baking sheet at a time for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are just set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
