Hello everyone, I hope that all are well and getting ready for the holidays. I am feeling better and better each day :). Christmas is coming up rather quickly, so I decided to start my christmas cookies, so I haven’t made Christmas cookies in years, so I took out the recipe and started making cookies this morning.

The cookies are simple to make, a recipe that is straight forward and not to much of a mess in the kitchen. My kitchen is quite small, so I don’t really have much counter space to lay everything all over, so I have to move a few things around to be able to cook and bake. So, here here goes…..:)

Ingredients

  1. 2 1/3All Purpose Flour
  2. 1/4 teaspoonSalt
  3. 1 cupsoftened Butter
  4. 1 cupCrystal fine Sugar
  5. 1Egg
  6. 2 teaspoonsVanilla Extract
  7. Sprinkles
  8. Sugar Powder
  9. Glaze/Icing

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    In a bowl combine flour and salt and set aside for later use.

  2. 2

    Add butter and sugar into a mixer and beat until fluffy. Add in the egg and the vanilla extract and continue to beat.

  3. 3

    Slowly add the flour mixture into the butter batter and beat until it becomes dough.

  4. 4

    Wrap dough in a large piece of plastic wrap, then place it in the refrigerator for at least one hour. This way the dough is hardened and it is easier to roll out.

  5. 5

    Roll out dough. Use any cookie cutter that you have on hand.

  6. 6

    I have star cookie cutters 🙂 Bake on medium to high for 20 minutes.

  7. 7

    Once cookies are baked lay on a rack to cool off before starting topping process. My chocolate/white icing did not turn out like I wanted it too, so I used sugar powder for most of my cookies as topping. This recipe makes about 25 cookies…..:)
