PERFECT ROLL OUT SUGAR COOKIES RECIPE

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream sugar and butter until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes on medium-high. Add vanilla extract, almond extract and the whole egg. Mix, then add the egg white and mix until combined.
• In a small mixing bowl whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. With mixing speed on low, gradually add dry ingredients until no flour pockets remain. I like to roll the dough out between two sheets of plastic wrap so that it's just under 1/2" thick, stick it on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 2-3 hours (that way I can just remove the plastic wrap and cut my first set of cookies out). You can also place the dough in an airtight container and refrigerate as well.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or baking mats, set aside.
• Roll dough out on a floured surface to just under 1/2" thick. Cut cookies and transfer to prepared baking sheet, place at least 1/2" apart (or cut directly from the rolled sheet of dough).
• Place in oven and bake for 8-10 minutes (the cookies will look extra soft, do not over bake) or until the cookies become firm on the edges. Remove and allow to cool for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Re-roll dough and continue cutting and baking until all of the dough has been used.
• Meanwhile, to make the frosting, in the bowl of a stand mixer cream butter until it becomes light and smooth. Add salt, 2 tablespoons of milk and vanilla. With mixing speed on low gradually add powdered sugar. Once powdered sugar is incorporated, bring mixing speed up to high and beat for 2 minutes. Add more milk to reach the desired consistency. Frost onto cooled cookies and top with desired sprinkles.

ROLL-OUT SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl and set that aside.
• In an electric mixer, cream together the granulated sugar and butter. Creaming is whipping up the butter, so it's light and fluffy along with the sugar to help the granules start to melt.
• Add the egg, vanilla, and almond extracts and mix them until well incorporated.
• Slowly add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients in 2-3 additions mixing in between.
• Once the dough has formed, dump it onto a well-floured surface. Divide the dough into half and wrap them up tightly. Pop into the fridge for about 30 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 350 F degrees and line your baking sheets with either silicone mats or parchment paper and set them aside.
• Roll out your refrigerated dough to ¼ of an inch thick and using your floured cookie cutter, cut out the shapes.
• Strategically place the cookie cutter to fit as many cookies in one rollout as possible, so your not handling the dough as much.
• Use a small spatula to transfer the cookie to the baking sheet.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes just until the cookie sets, and remove from oven.
• Let them sit for about 5 minutes to finish baking on the sheet, and then they go onto a rack to cool.
• Decorate with Royal Icing

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400*F''
• Prepare 2 baking sheets and set aside. This can be done by greasing them with butter or Crisco, non-stick spray, parchment paper, non-stick foil or a baking mat. Whatever your preferred method is.
• Cream together sugar and butter for 3 minutes or until fluffy.
• Add eggs and mix again.
• Add salt, and baking powder. Blend.
• Add 1/4 cup buttermilk, vanilla and almond extract. Blend.
• Add 2 1/2 cups flour (1/2 cup at a time).
• Add remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk.
• Then remaining flour (for a total of 4 1/2 cups). Batter should be smooth, elastic like and slightly sticky. If too sticky, add more flour a little at a time (up to 1 cup - be careful to not put TOO much flour in the dough).
• When ready to roll out, sprinkle surface with powdered sugar, not flour. These are SUGAR cookies. Roll them out in sugar! Roll to 1/4 in thickness.
• Cut out with favorite shape and transfer to prepared pan.
• Bake 10 minutes. Watch carefully as every oven bakes differently. You want the cookies to be a hint of golden under them, not dark golden. Edges should not start to show golden, you'll have to gently flip a cookie to see for sure.
• Allow cookies to cool completely then frost.
