Making the Dough
To begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup of softened butter, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until light and fluffy. This will take about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer, or 5-6 minutes by hand.
Next, sift in 2 and a half cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Use a spatula or your hands to mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, you can add a splash of milk.
Variations
The beauty of this cookie dough recipe is that you can customize it to your liking. For a festive touch, add in 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg. You can also mix in chocolate chips, sprinkles, or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
For a chocolatey twist, substitute half a cup of the flour with unsweetened cocoa powder. You can also replace the vanilla extract with peppermint extract for a delicious peppermint chocolate cookie.
Tips for Perfect Cookies
When shaping the dough into cookies, use a cookie scoop or spoon to ensure they are all the same size. This will ensure that they bake evenly. Also, chill the dough for 15-20 minutes before baking to prevent spreading.
When placing the dough on the baking sheet, leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Final Thoughts
This super easy Christmas cookie dough recipe is a must-try for the holiday season. Not only is it quick and easy, but it also produces delicious and versatile cookies. Get creative with your add-ins and enjoy the festive season with some homemade cookies. Happy baking!
