Granini's Sugar Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
2 1/4 cups flour
granulated sugar for rolling
Directions:
Cream butter and sugar. Add in egg, vanilla, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Mix thoroughly. Slowly mix in flour - but don't over mix.
Use a 2 teaspoon cookie scoop to dollop out cookies onto a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Roll cookies into balls. Pour some sugar into a small bowl, and roll each ball of dough around in the granulated sugar until it is thoroughly coated. Place each ball back onto the lined cookie sheet.
Pop those suckers into a 350ยบ oven and bake for 8-10 minutes. Try not to let the edges get too brown.
Allow to cool completely and devour. Good luck having enough left over to serve to friends and family. These are delish!!! In fact, this recipe is so beloved now that I often make a double batch (or I make 1 teaspoon scoopfuls, rather than 2 teaspoon scoopfuls) in order to double the amount of holiday treats I can get out of one batch!!
** Just in case you were paying attention, yes, this is the same dough I use to make my raspberry thumb print cookies. I just skip the divot part, don't put in the raspberry goo, and simply bake the sugar coated ball goodness. They are SOOOOO tasty all by themselves. And since I don't like raspberry goo, for me they are oh so much more tasty and delicious! But don't get me wrong, those raspberry thumbprint cookies are absolutely scrum. I promise.**
