Snack: Buttery Sugar Cookies
Recipe by /contributors/gina-marie-miraglia-eriquez When it comes right down to it, the simplest holiday cookie is, hands down, this sugar cookie. No rolling pin or sheets of wax paper are required. Just roll the dough into balls between your palms, then
Ingredients
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
Beat together butter, sugar, and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes in a stand mixer (preferably fitted with paddle attachment) or 6 with a handheld. Beat in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low, then mix in flour.
Halve dough and form each half into a disk, then wrap in wax paper. Put each disk in a resealable plastic bag and chill until firm enough to roll into balls, about 1 hour.
Heat oven to 350 °F with rack in middle. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
