Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 0.75 cup Vegetable Oil
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Almond Extract
- 4.5 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Cream of Tartar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Granulated Sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract to the bowl. Beat until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt until evenly distributed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop 1.5-inch balls of dough and roll them between your hands to form smooth spheres.
Roll each dough ball in the additional granulated sugar to coat the outside.
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Gently press down on each dough ball with the bottom of a glass or your palm to flatten slightly.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn a light golden color. Do not overbake.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your soft, buttery Paradise Bakery Sugar Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite cup of tea!
