As Christmas is coming up, here is the recipe the prefects used for our cookie decorating competition! Recipe from: Preppy Kitchen
Makes 27 small cookies
Ingredients:
4 cups flour 480g, sifted
1/3 cup corn starch 40g
3/4 tsp salt 4g
1 cup unsalted butter 227g
1 cup sugar 200g
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract 5mL
Directions:
Sift your flour, cornstarch and salt in a large bowl. Give it a whisk.
In your stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together.
Add the eggs while mixing. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Add 1 tsp vanilla extract.
Pour in the flour mixture and mix until everything is well incorporated.
Put the dough in a plastic bag, flatten it together, then chill it in the refrigerator so it firms up.
Once the dough is chilled, place it on a rolling mat, sprinkle with flour and roll out with a rolling pin. Move the dough around to prevent it from sticking.
Use a circular cookie cutter to cut out your cookies. Take away extra scraps to re-roll for more cookies.
Place them on a non-stick baking sheet and bake at 375F for 12 minutes.
You can decorate these cookies with royal icing, sprinkles, crushed candy canes and more!
Happy baking and Merry Christmas!
