Ultimate Soft Christmas Cookies
Ingredients
  • 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup margarine, softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary components for the recipe.
2
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium-sized container; place it aside for the time being.
3
Utilize an electric mixer to blend sugar and margarine in a large bowl until they achieve a uniform consistency. Cover the dough; refrigerate it for 2 hours to allow the ingredients to meld together.
4
Integrate the first egg into the butter mixture, followed by the second egg and vanilla extract. Gradually incorporate the flour mixture to create a dough that is just combined; avoid overmixing at this stage.
5
Cover the dough once more; refrigerate it in the refrigerator for 2 hours to allow the flavors to mature.
6
Preheat your oven to a temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Grease two cookie sheets with a non-stick cooking spray to prevent the cookies from sticking.
7
Unroll the dough on a clean, flat surface dusted with flour to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Utilize cookie cutters to create shapes; arrange them on the prepared cookie sheets in a single layer. Collect any remaining dough scraps and repeat this process to ensure all the ingredients are utilized.
8
Bake the cookies in batches in the preheated oven until they achieve a golden brown color, approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool briefly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack for complete cooling.
