Ingredients Required
- 34 cups (170 g) of room-temperature unsalted butter
- Ambrosia Organic Golden Yellow Sugar, packed in a half-cup (109 g)
- 2 tbsp (25 g) Ambrosia Organic Granulated Sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tsp (10 ml) vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups (312 g) all-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp (1 g) baking powder
- ¼ tsp (2 g) salt
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (191°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, Ambrosia Organic golden sugar, and Ambrosia Organic Granulated Sugar until completely blended.
Step 3: Add the egg and mix until fully incorporated into the butter mixture, which should take about 1 minute.
Step 4: Add the vanilla extract and blend until thoroughly combined.
Step 5: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. On low speed, add about half of the dry mixture to the bowl until just combined. Avoid over-mixing as you add the remaining flour. Mix everything together until a dough forms, then turn the dough out onto a flat surface and shape it into a disc. The dough should be covered in plastic wrap and refrigerated for one hour.
Step 6: When you’re ready to use the dough, allow it to come to room temperature for about 5 minutes.
Step 7: Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1/4 inch in between two sheets of parchment paper. Use your desired cookie cutter to cut out cookies. Gather any scraps and reroll and cut them. Before baking, place the chilled cookies on the prepared baking sheet and chill them in the refrigerator or freezer for about 10 minutes.
The cookies should be baked in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are just beginning to turn brown.
Step 8: The cookies should cool for five minutes on the baking sheet before being moved to a wire rack to finish cooling.
