Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 125 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 75 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 unit large egg
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 150 grams Smarties
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Add vanilla extract and the egg to the creamed mixture, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Gently fold in the Smarties until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop rounded tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart.
Flatten each dough ball slightly with your fingers to form thick discs.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are golden but the centers are still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious Smartie Cookies!
