Easy Butter Cookies



Sadly we’ve come to the last cookie blog post. This week we’re keeping it simple and going with a basic butter cookie. They’re really simple cookies. You can pair them with a nice cup of coffee or tea.


Butter Cookies:

To make these cookies you will need...

2 ½ cups of flour
1 tsp. salt
1 cup of butter
2/3 cup of sugar
1 egg plus 1 egg yolk
1 tsp. of vanilla

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper.


Mix your dry ingredients together in a bowl.


Next use your mixer and beat the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Then add in the egg and then the vanilla.

Add in the flour gradually until all incorporated. Chill the dough for about 10 minutes so that it’s easier to work with.


In a small bowl place your yolk and whisk it with a teaspoon of water.

Take the dough out of the fridge and roll into small balls. Place the balls on the cookies sheets and lightly pat down and score with a fork.


Brush the yolk over the tops of the cookies and bake for 10 minutes.


Cool completely before serving.
