If your Christmas season gets so hectic that you only have time to bake one batch of cookies, we suggest that this be the one you make. This is the kind of sugar cookie that generations of bakers have relied on, with a buttery texture and just-right tenderness. The accompanying glaze requires just three ingredients and is a standby that you can just as easily rely on when you need a glaze on other cookie varieties. It sets up nicely and is ideal for decorating, tinting well and spreading easily. The process of making sugar cookie cutouts is as essential to the holidays as opening gifts and singing Christmas songs, and if you can clear some time out on your schedule, it's a relaxing activity, too. Pull out all your favorite cookie cutters, whether they're classic hearts and stars or cute winter characters like reindeer and penguins, and bake up a batch-this recipe yields 60 cookies. When it's time to decorate, you have a blank canvas to indulge your style and creativity. Some bakers like to go all in on color and whimsy, while others prefer more simple and elegant finishing flourishes-it's all up to you. What we can promise is that no matter what shapes you cut them into or how you decorate them, you'll end up with cookies that are as delicious as they are beautiful.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup butter (1 1/2 sticks)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Colored Icing, recipe follows
1/2 cup confectioners¿ sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons water
3 to 4 drops food coloring, plus more as needed
Colored sprinkles, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, stir together flour and baking powder. In another bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy and light. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture, a third at a time to make a stiff dough. Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll out a portion of cookie dough to 1/4 inch thick. Cut out shapes using cookie cutters. Place on lightly greased or nonstick cookie sheets. Bake until lightly golden, about 10 minute, rotating baking sheet halfway through cooking time. Cool completely on pans about 5 minutes, transfer to cooling racks and cool completely before decorating.
  • In a small bowl, mix sugar and water to form a thick, smooth icing. Stir in food coloring to reach desired shade. Drop icing onto cookies using a small teaspoon and smooth with the back of the spoon. Make additional bowls for additional colors.
  • Additional multi-colored sprinkles can be added on top of icing before it dries for more decorative cookies, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your pie. Use real butter and eggs, and choose a good-quality sugar cookie mix.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help prevent the pie from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the dough tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set: The baking time will vary depending on the type of oven you have, so keep an eye on the pie and adjust the baking time as needed.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to firm up and the flavors to meld.
