Ingredients

1 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/2 cup sugar

1 large Land O Lakes® Egg

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

 

Sugar

Decorator sugars, if desired

How to make

  1. STEP 1

    Heat oven to 375°F.

  2. STEP 2

    Combine butter, powdered sugar and 1/2 cup sugar in bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add egg and vanilla; continue beating until well mixed. Add flour, cream of tartar and baking soda; beat at low speed until dough forms a ball.

  3. STEP 3

    Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place, 2 inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten to about 1 1/2 inches with bottom of glass dipped in sugar; sprinkle with decorator sugars, if desired. Bake 7-9 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Let stand 1 minute on cookie sheet; remove to cooling rack.

Tip #1

If cookies spread too much, chill dough about 1 hour.
