Easy, no chill, no spread, sugar cookie cutouts! These classic cookies turn out perfect every time.

Ingredients

    1. 2 cups unsalted butter, room temperature

    1. 2 cups granulated sugar

    1. 2 eggs

    1. 1 Tbsp almond emulsion (or your extract of choice)

    1. 4 tsp baking powder

    1. 6 cups all purpose flour

Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    • Start by creaming together your butter and sugar in your electric mixer with the paddle attachment.

    • Once butter and sugar is light and fluffy, add in eggs and almond emulsion, mix until combined.

    • Add in your baking powder, then add flour 2 cups at a time. Mix well each time you add flour.

    • When you’ve added your last 2 cups of flour, the dough may be stiff. You may need to take it out of your bowl and mix by hand.

    • Once dough is completely combined, lightly dust a clean work surface with flour and roll out your dough. I like to work with about 1/4 of the dough at a time. If you work with too much at one time it will be difficult to roll out.

    • Roll dough to about 1/4-1/2 inch thickness and cut with desired cookie cutters

    • Transfer to baking sheet, and bake for 6-7 minutes, depending on oven and preference. I never bake mine longer than 7 minutes. If the edges are starting to turn golden brown you’ve baked a little too long!

    • Cool completely before decorating.
