Ingredients
Flour
The main ingredient in Russian spice cookies is flour. It provides the base for the cookie dough and gives the cookies a light and airy texture. All-purpose flour is typically used in this recipe, but you can also use a combination of all-purpose and whole wheat flour for a heartier cookie.
Sugar
Sugar is another key ingredient in this recipe, providing the sweetness that balances out the warm spices. Granulated sugar is typically used, but you can also use a combination of granulated and brown sugar for a deeper flavor.
Eggs
Eggs are essential for binding the cookie dough together and giving it structure. Eggs also add moisture to the dough, resulting in a soft and chewy cookie.
Butter
To achieve a rich and buttery flavor, this recipe calls for butter. Be sure to use unsalted butter so you can control the amount of salt in the cookies.
Spices
The star of this recipe is the warm and fragrant blend of spices that give these cookies their signature flavor. The most commonly used spices in Russian spice cookies are cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg. You can also add a touch of cardamom or allspice for an extra layer of complexity.
Instructions
Mixing the dough
To make the cookie dough, start by creaming together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Then, beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the spices. Gradually add in the flour until a soft dough forms.
Shaping the cookies
Traditionally, Russian spice cookies are shaped into small rounds or rectangles. You can use a cookie cutter or simply roll the dough into balls and flatten them slightly with your palm.
Baking
Preheat your oven to 350°F and place the shaped cookies on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoying your Russian spice cookies
These cookies are best enjoyed with a cup of hot tea or coffee, and make for a perfect accompaniment to a cozy night in or a holiday gathering. You can also get creative and add a drizzle of icing or a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top for an extra touch of sweetness. No matter how you choose to enjoy them, these Russian spice cookies are sure to become a favorite in your household.
