Easy & delicious Butter Cookies

Hi guys!

As we’re approaching December, many people have begun their Christmas preppings. I won’t make any real Christmas recipes until the first of December, but these yummy Butter Cookies might be part of our Christmas celebration.

They are easy to make, delicious with a cup of coffee or tea and perfect for royal icing decorations! I’m still practicing my cookie decorating skills so I won’t be able to show you awesome looking cookies. But I can show you the cookies themselves, which are the true stars in this show 😉

 

What we need for about 30 cookies (depending on the size of your cookies):

• 225 g butter
• 175 g sugar
• 1 egg
• 300 g flour
• Baking tray
• Parshment paper
• Cookie cutters
• Plastic foil
• Roller

 

How to:

1. Mix together sugar and butter until all sugar is absorbed.
2. Mix in the egg.
3. Add the flour and mix until fully combined.
4. Knead the dough into a ball and wrap in plastic foil. Set aside in the fridge for 30 minutes.
5. Sprinkle some flour on the counter before rolling out the dough.
6. Roll out the dough. About 1 cm thick.
7. Preheat the oven at 180°C.
8. Line the baking trays with parshment paper.
9. Cut out the cookies and place them on the baking trays.
10. Bake them for 15 minutes.
11. Set aside to cool.

I always forget how easy it is to make cookies and how happy it makes people feel. Who wouldn’t want a cookie with its coffee or tea? Or maybe two or three 😉

I made one especially for my little doggy Max:

Have a delicious day ❤
