Gather Your Ingredients
What’s a celebration without some delicious food? Here’s what you’re gonna need for that classic holiday treat that’ll have everyone coming back for seconds:
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 cup of butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of powdered sugar for frosting
- Food coloring (red and green for that festive touch)
Instructions to Sweeten Up Your Holidays
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Get that heat just right so your goodies come out golden!
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually blend this dry mix into the wet mixture. Make sure everything’s combined perfectly.
- Once your dough is ready, scoop it onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Give each cookie some space to spread while they bake.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until golden. Let them cool for a while.
- For that extra festive touch, mix powdered sugar with a bit of water, divide it into two bowls, and add food coloring. Drizzle that over your cooled cookies for that beautiful Christmas look!
There you have it! A sweet treat and a visual delight to kick off your holiday season. Gather your crew, create those memories, and enjoy every moment. Happy holidays!
