Delicious Melt In Yout Mouth Butter Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the plain flour, corn flour, pudding powder and baking powder and sift through a sieve. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter and icing sugar until fluffy and pale. Mix in the vanilla extract. Sift in the flour mixture. Beat at low speed with an electric mixer. Remember to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Lightly knead into a dough. Wrap with a plastic film and roll into a tube in 1 1/2-inch thickness. Wrap it up and refrigerate for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until it's workable. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking trays with baking paper. Remove the dough from refrigerator. Slice into 1/4 inch-thick portions. Place each portion in single layer on the lined trays, each at least 1/2 inch apart. Use a lightly greased fork to gently press the small dough. Bake in preheated oven, for about 15 minutes, or until lightly brown. Remove from oven and let them sit for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack until completely cooled down.

Steps:

• Cream butter or margarine (and yes margarine does work beautifully! I can see some people raising their eyebrows!) with sugar.
• Add eggs and vanilla and mix.
• Add flour, baking powder and salt and mix well.
• At this point you can either roll out and cut with cookie cutters or roll dough into 1 inch balls and flatten on cookie sheet.
• Bake at 375F for 6 to 8 minutes until set, NOT brown.
• Mix icing ingredients together and ice cookies once cooled.

Steps:

• 1. Cream room temperature butter with sugar until light and fluffy on medium with an electric mixer. Add Vanilla and one of the add ins if you so choose. The cookies are great alone and only get better with one of the add ins.
• 2. Sift flour and combine with creamed butter mixture , decrease speed to low. Scrapping down sides often to keep mixture combined.
• 3. Place cookies on sheet with at least 1 inch in between, they will spread. With 2 fingers dusted with confectioners(powder) sugar flatten the cookie down gently
• 4. Bake cookies in a 400 degree oven on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone liner until light golden brown. Do not leave the kitchen watch the cookies so they don't burn. they should bake in 10-12 minutes. I use a cookie scooper (looks like a small ice cream scoop)

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, cream butter, oil and sugars; add egg and vanilla and mix.
• Combine flour, baking soda and cream of tartar in a separate bowl; gradually add to the creamed mixture.
• Chill for several hours or overnight (I've made these and have only chilled them for 2 hours and they turned out fine, however when I've chilled them for several hours they were perfection!).
• Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2-inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Flatten with a fork dipped in flour; sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned.
• Cool on wire racks.
