softest cookie details
I did forget to say sugar but I do include measurements and ingredients throughout video.
Make sure the dough is thick when using cut outs! This makes the cookies soft.
Also preheat oven to 350 and bake for 8 mins.
Far as decorating...I should of done it like I did when I was younger
-food coloring and dough to add personality.
These turned out delicious however I have NEVER liked sugar cookies. It doesn't mean they weren't good.

EASY SUGAR COOKIE RECIPE ~ PERFECT FOR CUT OUT COOKIES
This recipe makes a simple but versatile vanilla sugar cookie with only a few ingredients and no fancy techniques. The dough is easy to work with, you'll be able to roll & cut with ease and they are bound to be the perfect 'go to' cookie recipe for any holiday cookies ????????
This recipe requires chilling your dough, and yes I know, chilling is a pain....BUT rest assured that your patience will be paid off afterwards. I found chilling my cookie dough before and after cutting really helps to prevent spreading during baking. It also makes your dough very easy to manage when it comes time to roll it out and to cut out with perfect defined edges....so trust me when I tell you that it is well worth the wait! ????????????
????NOTE: makes approx 2 dozen of cookies (depending on cutter sizes)
???? INGREDIENTS:
175 grams icing sugar/powdered sugar [US Conversion: 1 ½ Cups]
225 grams salted butter (room temperature) [US Conversion: 2 Sticks or 1 Cup]
1 egg (room temperature)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract (or any flavour your prefer)
1 teaspoon baking powder
420 grams all-purpose flour [US Conversion: 3 ¼ Cups]
???? INSTRUCTIONS:
▪ Cream together butter and icing sugar.
▪ Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix well.
▪ Sift together flour & baking powder, add to the mixture little by little until well incorporated.
▪ Wait approximately 30 - 60 mins before working with the dough as it will firm up slightly.
▪ Roll the dough between baking paper and put it into the fridge for a few hours this will help prevent spreading. When the dough is a bit firmer, take it out of the fridge and cut into desired shapes (lightly dust with flour if necessary).
▪ Place the cut out cookie dough into a baking tray then put it into the fridge again for another 1-2 hours, this will also help prevent spreading.
▪ Bake cookies at 180° Celsius for approx 10-12 minutes (times may vary slightly depending on your oven). Note: Each oven is different, I would recommend you get to know your oven and adjust the time accordingly.
???? USEFUL TIPS for making perfect sugar cookies:
???? Ensure that you ALWAYS use room temperature butter, in the video i have shown you how to check if your butter have reached the correct room temperature, I can't stress enough on how important this is! Test your butter by pressing it, they should give slightly but it should still hold its shape. If you use butter that have melted too much and too soft you will end up with a dough that is too soft and hard to work with.
???? When its time to cut your cookie dough, make sure to keep your cuts as close together to get as many cookies out of your dough as possible. I usually divide my dough into half before rolling them (you would have seen this in my video) and when it comes to re-rolling your scraps after your first cut, I usually add the second half from my un-rolled dough with the scraps and knead them together, then re-roll and cut again.
???? Chill your dough if you want a perfect cut out cookies with define edges. I can't tell you how much chilling really helps my dough to retain they shape and prevent spreading, so for those of you who are impatient out there....if you want perfect cut out cookies I'm afraid you will have to wait and practice being patient LOL

How to make Sugar Cookies!
Sorry I haven't been posting as much, life is very busy with 3 kids these days. Thanks for watching!
Not the Best but Best is my name ;)
Sugar Cookie Recipe:
Ingredients
1 cup of softened unsalted butter (227 grams)
1 and 1/2 cups of sugar (300 grams)
2 eggs room temperature
2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract
3 and 1/2 cups of all purpose flour (450 grams)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Method
1. In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy
2. Add the eggs one at a time. Beating each time until just combined
3. Add vanilla extract and beat until combined
4. Mix baking powder, salt and flour.
5. Add flour mixture to butter mixture about 1/2 cup a time.
6. Turn mixer back on, and mix until everything is combined. Once your mixer can’t do anymore, mix with your hands until you have a smooth dough if needed.
7. Separate dough quarters and wrap each quarter in plastic wrap. You want each quarter to resemble a pancake for easy rolling.
8. Refrigerate for about one hour or until firm enough to roll.
9. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) and place rack in center of oven. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
10. Remove one quarter of the chilled dough and, on a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2cm using a floured rolling pin. Keep turning the dough as you roll, adding more flour if needed, making sure the dough does not stick to the counter.
11. Cut out desired shapes using a lightly floured cookie cutter and transfer cookies to baking sheet.
12. Place the baking sheets with the unbaked cookies in the refrigerator for a minimum of 15 minutes. This will help cookies retain their shape while baking. (I like to do an hour for more complicated shapes).
13. Bake for 10minutes. (Could be anywhere from 8-14minutes). It depends on the size of your cookie and your cookie sheet or even your oven! For smaller cookies I would start checking at 8 min. Cookies will be done when edges are just starting to brown.
14. Remove from oven and let cookies cool on baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.
15. Once cooled, frost with royal icing.
