People have asked how I make my cookies and if I have any tips, so here is my "tutorial" of sorts.
My sugar cookie recipe
3 1/2 cups (460 grams) all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon (4 grams) baking powder
1 cup (227 grams) butter, room temperature
1 1/2 cups (300 grams) granulated white sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract ( I usually do one almond and one vanilla)
Mix just until the flour is incorporated, do not over mix or your cookies will be tough.
Chill the dough in the fridge for about an hour. I usually seperate the dough into 3 or 4 dics so that it makes rolling it out easier and you end up handling the dough less.
Picture 1 is how I roll out the dough.
Picture 2 is how to hand cut your cookie.
On a side note, to get a super smooth cookie take a clean rolling pin and lightly roll over your freshly baked cookies as soon as they come out of the oven.
