🎄 TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS RECIPES 🎄
Sugar Cookies by Dustin
Ingredients:
1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sour cream
1. Mix the dry ingredients
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
2. Cream the butter and sugars
Beat the softened butter until creamy, then add the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat 2–3 minutes until light and fluffy.
3. Add the wet ingredients
Mix in the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and sour cream until smooth and well combined.
4. Combine wet and dry ingredients
Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in two additions. Mix on low just until the dough forms. Chill the dough for 30 minutes.
5. Shape and roll
Scoop 2-tablespoon portions of dough and roll each ball lightly in granulated sugar. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
6. Bake
Bake at 350°F for 10–12 minutes, until the centers are set but pale and the edges are just barely golden. Let cool 5 minutes before moving to a rack.
