How to Make Sweet Milk Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 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 soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Add enough flour to form a slightly stiff dough. The dough should be soft but not sticky.
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour. This will help prevent the cookies from spreading during baking.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about ½ inch thickness.
- Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes, or roll into balls and flatten slightly.
- Place cookies onto ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. If making rolled cookies instead of cutouts, baking time may need to be increased. Keep a close eye on them.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, frost with your favorite frosting.
