How to Make Farmgirl's Easy Cut Cookies

  1. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in 2 large egg whites and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups whole wheat flour, 1 cup almond meal, ½ teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  6. Lightly flour a clean work surface and rolling pin. Roll out the chilled dough to about ¼ inch thickness.
  7. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes. Place cookies onto the prepared baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown. Rotate baking sheets halfway through for even baking.
  9. Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Decorate your cookies with frosting, sprinkles, or other fun toppings once they are completely cool.
