Yield Makes about 110

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus more for baking sheets
2/3 cup sugar
2 large egg yolks
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1 large egg yolk, for brushing as needed
Sanding sugar, if desired

Steps:

  • Line baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat; set aside.
  • Place butter and sugar in the bowl of a food processor; process until creamy. Add egg yolks, salt, and vanilla; process for 30 seconds until combined. Add 1 cup flour and process until smooth. Add remaining cup of flour to processor; process to combine. Turn dough out onto work surface and form into flat square; wrap with plastic wrap and transfer to refrigerator until chilled.
  • Place a nonstick baking mat on work surface. Place half of the chilled dough on baking mat; top with a sheet of plastic wrap. Roll out dough between baking mat and plastic wrap until it is 1/8-inch-thick. Transfer to fridge to chill until firm, about 30 minutes. Repeat process with remaining dough.
  • Using a 2-inch round fluted cookie cutter, cut out dough and transfer to prepared baking sheets. Transfer baking sheets to refrigerator until dough is chilled, about 20 minutes. Roll out scraps, and repeat. Repeat process with remaining dough. Transfer to refrigerator and chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Mix together remaining egg yolk with 1 teaspoon water; brush tops of cookies with egg white mixture. Sprinkle with sanding sugar, if desired. Transfer to oven. Bake until cookies are pale golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Tips:

  • Before you start, make sure your butter is cold and firm. This will help the cookies keep their shape in the oven.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can use a pastry blender or two knives to cut the butter into the flour.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
  • When you are shaping the cookies, be sure to press the dough firmly into the molds. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking can make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before you frost them. This will help the frosting set properly.
  • If you are using a powdered sugar glaze, be sure to mix it with a little bit of milk or water until it reaches a thick, pourable consistency.
  • You can decorate the cookies with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or other decorations of your choice.

Conclusion:

Orange Sable Cookies are a delicious and elegant treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of flavors and decorations.
