Sugar Cookies:
2 ¾ cup flour
1 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. salt
(Mix together & set aside)
¾ cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
1 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. salt
(Mix together & set aside)
¾ cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Beat wet ingredients until light & fluffy. Add flour mixture and mix until smooth.
Chill one hour.
Roll out on flour dusted surface and cut into shapes.
Bake cookies on greased baking sheet for 8 to 10 minutes.
Icing:
3 cups powdered sugar
1 Tbsp. light corn syrup
¾ cup warm water
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. almond extract
food coloring as desired
Combine and stir well. Dip top of each
cookie into icing. (If it seems a little thick for your liking, gently scrap
some off with a knife.) The icing will
harden on the cookies within 10 minutes or so.
This means you want to mix up your icing right before you’re ready to
use it and don’t let it sit too long.
You will fall in love with these cookies & icing! They taste like they're straight from the bakery!
