Re: Baking

Sugar Cookies (from the Better Homes and Garden cookbook)

2/3 C butter, softened
3/4 C sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 egg
1 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla
2 C flour
optional icing.

Preheat oven to 375 F.

Beat butter and sugar in large mixing bowl.

Add vanilla, egg, and milk. Beat until well mixed.

Add flour and beat in as much as you can, then stir by hand. Stick in fridge about 2 hours.

On lightly floured surface, roll out cookies. Use cookies cutters. Bake 7 to 8 minutes.

TIPS: I'm lazy and usually make the dough one night and bake the next. I can't wait for butter to soften, so I microwave it in increment of 15 seconds. I chop the butter up before I microwave it. This makes the mixing process easier, but also means it takes longer to chill. Feel free to ask questions

Thank you! Seems simple enough, but I won't be trying them tonight. If I do come up with a question, though, I'll post it here.

The other key part is to work in batches. I usually only take about 1/4 of the dough out of the fridge at a time.

Gotcha! Maybe that's the trick I've been missing.

Do you chill it in the bowl or wrap it in something? I know pie crust you wrap, but other things the whole bowl is fine.

I chill it in the bowl with a lid. I had a nice Pyrex glass mixing bowl that has a matching lid.
