Ingredients
1. Flour
The base of any good cookie recipe is flour. For these Christmas cookies, I recommend using all-purpose flour to give them a nice texture and structure.
2. Sugar
Next up, we have sugar. I like to use a combination of granulated sugar and brown sugar for a perfect balance of sweetness and depth of flavor.
3. Butter
Butter is essential for adding richness and flavor to these cookies. Make sure to use unsalted butter and let it soften at room temperature before using.
4. Eggs
Eggs act as a binder in this recipe and help give the cookies a soft and chewy texture. Make sure to use room temperature eggs for best results.
5. Vanilla extract
No cookie recipe is complete without a splash of vanilla extract. It adds a delicious hint of flavor and aroma to these Christmas cookies.
Instructions
Step 1: Cream the butter and sugars
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This will take about 3-4 minutes using an electric mixer.
Step 2: Add in the eggs and vanilla
Once the butter and sugars are well combined, add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then add in the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
Step 3: Mix in the dry ingredients
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 4: Chill the dough
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will help the dough firm up and make it easier to handle.
Step 5: Roll and cut out the cookies
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about ¼ inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes and place them on a lined baking sheet.
Step 6: Bake and decorate
Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, decorate them with your favorite icing and sprinkles.
Conclusion
This Christmas cookie recipe is a tried and true favorite in my household, and I hope it becomes a staple in yours too. These cookies are perfect for gift-giving or enjoying with a warm cup of hot chocolate by the fireplace. So go ahead and give this recipe a try, and let me know how it turns out for you!
