How to Make Best Loved Melt In Your Mouth Sugar Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes.
- Place cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, decorate as desired with frosting, sprinkles, or other toppings.
