Ingredients You'll Need
Gather the following ingredients to make these homemade Christmas cookies:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Red and green food coloring
Festive sprinkles or colored sugar for decorating
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to make these delightful homemade Christmas cookies:
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Divide the dough in half. Add a few drops of red food coloring to one half and green food coloring to the other half. Mix until the dough is evenly colored.
Roll each dough into small balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If desired, sprinkle with festive sprinkles or colored sugar.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your homemade Christmas cookies with a glass of milk or a cup of hot cocoa. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
Variations
Get creative with your homemade Christmas cookies by trying these variations:
Add in chopped nuts or dried fruit to the dough for extra flavor and texture.
