These sugar cookies are just the perfect amount of sugar burst that you’re looking for with an extra sugary-batter dough and coated in sugar before baking. A real sweet treat!
To make Best Sugar Cookie, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F and line baking sheets with baking parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine 2¾ cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, ½ teaspoon of baking powder and ½ teaspoon of salt.
In a separate mixing bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat 1 cup of butter with 1 cup + 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add 1 large egg and mix again until completely combined.
Stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract until combined.
Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined without over mixing. The cookie dough should be thick and not sticky. Form into a smooth ball.
Roll about 1½ tablespoon portions of dough into small balls and coat in sprinkles of sugar. Place on the lined baking sheet leaving a bit of space between each cookie as they will spread out when baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 7-8 minutes until spread out and soft. Do not over bake and remove before the edges turn golden.
Cool on baking sheets for about 4-5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
