What to do on a rainy day with four young children to entertain? (I was borrowing a couple of them for the morning) Make cookies! We didn't have quite enough time to make rolled cookies, wait for them to cool and then frost/sprinkle them, so I needed a recipe that added the sprinkles before baking. These also TASTE very, very good.
Soft Sugar Cookies
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 T brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 t double strength vanilla
Preheat oven to 375 standard/350 convection. Whisk flour with baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar. Then add in egg and vanilla (use the good stuff). Much like when making peanut butter cookies, roll balls of dough in sugar (maybe bourbon/vanilla bean infused raw sugar?) or sprinkles, and place on parchment lined pans - far apart! I was doing 8-9 cookies on a half sheet pan. Bake 10-12 minutes until lightly browned on edges, allow to cool a few minutes on the parchment before removing from tray.
