EASY NO-CHILL SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• In mixing bowl, cream butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla.
• Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; add to butter mixture 1 cup at a time, mixing after each addition.
• Do not chill dough. Divide dough into two balls. On a floured surface roll each ball into a circle approximately 12" wide and 1/8" thick. Dip cookie cutter in flour and cut out cookies.
• Bake on ungreased cookie sheet for 6 - 7 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned. It helps to line pans with parchment paper for easy cookie removal.

VEGAN NO-CHILL SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease baking sheets.
• Add oil, baking powder, sugar, soy milk, and extract to a mixing bowl and combine with a whisk.
• Stir flour in 1/2 cup at a time with a large spoon. When the dough is too thick to mix any more flour in with the spoon, knead it in with your hands. NOTE: I use Silk soy milk. The wet/dry balance of the dough may vary depending on the type and even brand of milk substitute you are using. The dough should form a ball when squeezed together but not be sticky in your hands. As you add flour, knead each 1/2 cup addition in thoroughly and check for this. If it is getting too dry to hold together as a ball, either stop adding flour or add a bit more of your liquid. If it is sticky feeling, you need a little more flour.
• When your dough is done, take a handful of dough, shape it into a ball in your hands, and roll the dough out on a floured surface. If the dough is sticking to the rolling pin, dust the top of the ball of dough with flour before rolling. (If after a while the dough becomes too dry to form a ball after repeated rolling out and dusting with flour, knead 2-3 drops of water into it to get it to form a ball again. ).
• Cut into desired shapes. Lift shapes with spatula onto lightly greased baking sheets.
• Bake for about eight minutes. Cookies are done when points are showing the slightest hint of brown, or just before that. Use a spatula to loosen cookies from sheets immediately.
• Allow cookies to cool and decorate as desired.

NO FAIL SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Cream butter and sugar.
• Add eggs and vanilla.
• Mix dry ingredients and add to butter mixture.
• Mix well.
• Chill for 1 to 2 hours or see HINT below.
• Roll to desired thickness and cut into desired shapes.
• Bake on an ungreased baking sheet at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until just beginning to turn brown around the edges.
• HINT: Rolling out dough without the mess-rather than wait for the dough to chill, take freshly made dough and place a glob between two sheets of parchment paper.
• Roll it out to the desired thickness then place the dough with paper on a cookie sheet and pop it in the refrigerator.
• Continue rolling dough between paper until you have used it all.
• By the time you finish preparing the dough, the first batch will be chilled and ready to cut.
• Reroll left over dough and repeat the process.
• An added bonus is that you aren't adding any more flour to the cookies by rolling them out the old fashioned way.
