Easy Sugar Cookies

   Easy Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookies are a classic, they are simple and amazing but also can be versatile. You can add any extra you want. For example I made white chocolate and peanut butter chip sugar cookie, also awesome. So throw in whatever you like to make this sugar cookie your own. 

Ingredients:  

1 cup butter                 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 cup sugar                   1/2 tsp baking powder
1 egg                              
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups flour

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

To start combine butter and sugar in a mixing bowl once these are blended together add in the egg and vanilla, mix well.
     Gradually add in flour, baking soda, baking powder.
     Shape the mixture into 1 inch balls and roll them in sugar. Place on a greased cookie sheet and flatten them with the bottom of a glass.
      For extra awesomeness I sprinkle a little extra sugar on top after they have been flattened, it gives the cookies a sparkly appearance when they come out of the oven.                                  
      Bake for 10-12 minutes. Cool on baking rack. 


 This cookie is easy, these are all things you should have on hand in your kitchen. If you are in a pinch these cookies are easy, not time consuming to make, and very yummy.


   Go Get Baked,
