1 cup | Flour |
1/2 cup | Cornstarch |

1 tbsp | Evaporated milk |

Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by setting your oven to 300°F (150°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking.
-
Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, sift together the flour, cornstarch, and salt, mixing well to combine; set this mixture aside for later use.
-
Cream the Butter: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer on low speed to cream the softened butter until it’s light and fluffy. Gradually add in the icing sugar and heavy cream, continuing to mix until everything is well incorporated.
-
Combine the Mixtures: Slowly add the sifted dry ingredients into the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Finally, stir in the vanilla extract, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Drop the Cookies: Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, leaving space between each as they will spread slightly while baking. It’s important not to flatten or pat them down.
-
Bake: Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies start to turn a light golden brown. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
-
Cool and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. These cookies freeze well, so you can save some for later!
Enjoy these Whipped Buttery Cookies with your favorite beverage or share them as a delightful treat during gatherings!
