How To Make best ever sugar cookies
-
1Sift flour, cream of tartar, baking soda & set aside.
-
2Cream butter & sugar till fluffy. About 2-3 minutes. Add oil, eggs & desired flavoring. Mix well.
-
3Add flour gradually, beating well after each addition.
-
4Roll dough between your palms, into small balls. Place an inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Smooch (crisscross) with a fork.
-
5Place a piece of walnut on each cookie and sprinkle generously with cinnamon and sugar mixture. Bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes -- or until cookies are slightly brown around edges.
-
6I usually split the batter in half & add coconut extract and 2 cups of coconut. Roll in balls, smooch with a fork and sprinkle white sugar on top. Another option is just to roll the balls in sugar and crisscross with a fork.
-
7These cookies can be frozen in Ziploc bags or stored in tins, lined with waxed paper between layers. They usually keep for up to three months.
