-
Cream the Butter:
- In a large bowl, using a hand-held mixer at medium speed, beat the unsalted butter for 30 seconds, or until creamy.
-
Incorporate Sugar:
- Add the confectioners’ sugar and continue beating for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture is light in texture and color. Don’t hesitate to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure even mixing.
-
Add Wet Ingredients:
- Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract into the mixture, and beat well until fully combined.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients:
- At low speed, beat in the sifted flour mixture, in two additions, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. This ensures a homogeneous dough consistency.
-
Chill the Dough:
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate. Chilling the dough helps to firm it up, making it easier to roll out later.
-
Preheat Oven:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat it to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
-
Roll and Cut:
- On a well-floured surface, roll out half of the dough at a time to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a cookie cutter, cut the dough into desired shapes and sprinkle them with granulated sugar for added sweetness and texture.
-
Bake:
- Place the cut cookies on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 5-8 minutes, or until lightly browned at the edges. Keep a close eye on them to prevent over-baking.
-
Cool and Decorate:
- Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, unleash your creativity and decorate them as desired. Whether with frosting, sprinkles, or a simple dusting of powdered sugar, make them your own!
