• 2/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup salted butter
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tsp vanilla or 1 tsp vanilla & 1 tsp almond extract
• 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 400°
• In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter, egg, salt and vanilla as well as food coloring (if you are adding it).
• Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until batter is light and fluffy. Approx. 2-3 minutes.
• Add flour slowly.
• Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Approx. 2-3 minutes.
• Place dough in cookie press. Form desired shapes 1 inch apart on cookie sheets
• Bake 6-8 minutes or until edges are slightly browned.
• We prefer these plain, but if you desire a decorative glaze, simply whisk 1/2 cup confectioners sugar with 4 tsp of water. Brush glaze over baked cookies and top with colored sugar or sprinkles.
