Ingredients
- 1 cup Butter
- ¾ cup Caster Sugar or light brown sugar
- 2 large Egg
- 1 tsp. Vanilla
- 2 ¼ cups All-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp. Salt
- Royal Icing
Instructions
- Measure all the ingredients and set them aside. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and castor sugar until light and fluffy with a pale-like appearance. (You may use an electric handheld mixer but a stand mixer with a paddle attachment is more effective).
- Add the egg and beat until fully incorporated into the mixture. Mix the flour and salt and sift into the creamed mixture. Use a rubber spatula to mix the wet and dry ingredients and finally use your hand to make a ball of dough.
- Divide it into two pieces. On a silicon mat, roll out the dough and cover with a parchment paper. Chill the roll-out dough in the fridge overnight or at least two hours.
- Preheat the oven to 150C OR 350F. Bake the cookies on the middle rack of the oven for 12 to 15 minutes till light golden brown in color.
- Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on the tray then carefully transfer them to the wire cooling rack. Let cookies cool completely.
- Once the cookies have cooled completely, start decorating them with the royal icing you desire. The time you take depends on the number of cookies you decorate.
- Enjoy the colorful and extremely sweet delights. Springtime is made memorable by such adorable-looking cookies.
