Sugar Cookies

Sugar Cookies | Amy Krouse Rosenthal

In case anyone was wondering how my first attempt at sugar cookies went, here is some photo evidence. 😂 Not the best, but a decent try. I still have to find a better cookie dough recipe, but we sorted out the icing after a few hours. I‘m extremely in love with my little yeti cookie though 💙

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks So cute and they look delicious 😋 5y

julesG They look cute and yummy. What kind of cookie are you thinking of? Thin? Thick? Rollable dough? Lots of butter? I could dive into my grandmother's recipes and translate some for you. 5y

Buchbeeg Those are so fun! 5y

Clwojick A thinner cut out dough, but strong enough to hold their shape with icing sugar on it, and easy to work with? This dough recipe was horrible to roll out, and cut.... which is normally the easiest part lol. @julesG (edited) 5y

Clwojick I don‘t really know what counts as thin or thick, but I‘d say normal thickness is fine lol 😂 @julesG 5y

reluctantangeleno 🤩😋 5y

julesG I'll get back to you 5y

Palimpsest @Clwojick probably a stupid question, but did you chill the dough for a while before rolling? I always use my grandma‘s sugar cookie recipe which is supposed to be 1/4 inch thick, but I like a thicker softer cookie. Never been great with royal icing and flooding, so I just use buttercream although you don‘t get that gorgeous look like the ones you posted the other day. Your cookies look amazing. I love the yeti and the ghosts! 5y

teebe 😮😭 that yeti really is the cutest thing 5y

Jemgirl2014 Well done! They look so good! 5y

Deifio Cool! 🤩🤩 5y

TheAromaofBooks Those are SO adorable! 5y

Freespirit They look amazing! 5y

TheDaysGoBy Those look great! Sugar cookies with royal icing are so hard. I haven‘t perfected it 5y

Clwojick @Palimpsest I used a no chill recipe. The first half I tried without chilling and it was horrible, and the second half I chilled and it was also horrible to work with lol 5y

marleed Oh but the are so cute! And ya know - cuteness helps :) 5y

LazyOwl These look great 5y

julesG Soooooo sorry, I nearly forgot. My go-to recipe, ancient - from my grandmother: 400g AP flour, 150g icing sugar, 1 egg - mix. Knead in 200g chilled butter (cubed). Chill for 30min. Roll out, cut out, bake for about 10min at 200C/375F. 5y

Clwojick Thank you sooo much! I tried another recipe on Sunday, but again, I wasn‘t a fan. I‘ll try this one next! @julesG 5y

julesG If you make the cookies thicker they might need to bake for a little longer. 5y
