CHRISTMÀS SUGAR COOKIÉS



INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at r0om temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon of almond extract
  • 3-4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • The best sugar cookie frosting
  • Pearl sugar balls (sugared almonds)







INSTRUCTIONS

  • In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), cream the butter and sugar, on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
  • Add the eggs, vanilla and almond. Beat until everything is combined. Add salt and 3 cups of flour; beat until a smooth paste is obtained. If the dough is sticky (that is, when you touch it and move your fingers away from the dough sticks), add more flour a tablespoon at a time until it collects. Divide the d0ugh in half and wrap each half in plastic wrap. Refrigerate about an hour or until it is firm enough to roll.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 ° F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat rug.
  • Remove half of the refrigerated dough from the refrigerator and, on a lightly floured surface, spread the dough to a thickness of 1/4 inch. (Continue turning the dough as you roll, making sure the dough does not stick to the counter.) Cut out the desired shapes with a lightly floured cookie cutter and transfer the cookies to a baking sheet.
  • Place the baking sheèts with the unc0oked cookiès in the refrigerat0r for about 15 minutès to c0ol the d0ugh, which prevents the cookies from spreading and losing their shape during baking. Note: If you are not going to frost the baked cookies, you can sprinkle the uncooked cookies with sparkling sugar at this point.
  • Bake the cookies for about 9 to 11 minutes (depending on the size) or until the edges just start to brown. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on a baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to finish cooling. Decorate the cookies with the best sugar cookie frosting, if desired. Be sure to let the glaze dry completely before storing. (It may take several hours or overnight.
