Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the egg and pure vanilla extract to the creamed mixture. Beat until fully combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Divide the dough into two portions. Wrap each portion in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of the dough to about 1/4-inch thick. Keep the other portion in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Use heart-shaped cookie cutters to cut out the dough and place the shapes onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving a little space between each cookie.
Gather and reroll the scraps to cut out more shapes, repeating until the dough is used up.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, decorate the cookies with icing, sprinkles, or edible glitter as desired, or enjoy them plain!
