1 cup butter

Categories     Cookies

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 3/4 c flour
1 1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 c butter, softened
1 1/2 c white sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 tsp rum extract
colored sugar to top

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • 2. In a small bowl, mix all dry ingredients, except sugar. Set aside.
  • 3. Using a mixer, beat together the butter and sugar until smooth and very fluffy.
  • 4. Beat in egg and rum extract.
  • 5. Gradually blend in the rest of the dry ingredients. Make sure your mixing thoroughly.
  • 6. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, and roll in colored sugar. Place on lined cookie sheets about 1 1/2 inches apart.
  • 7. Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned.

Tips:

  • Use unsalted butter at room temperature for the best texture and flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Use a cookie scoop to get evenly sized cookies.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Don't overbake the cookies or they will be dry.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
