Sugar Cookie Recipe

 I have a habit of finding really great baking recipes and raving over them & then forgetting to save the recipe. I've done this more times than I can count, and when I look for the one I used to remake them later on I'm lost and left to guess which one it was! I've had to try and try again many times in order to find what I once used and this recipe falls into that category.

I first tried this sugar cookie recipe when we invited friends over to have a cookie decorating party. I knew I had things in my cupboard to create sugar cookies, I just wanted one that didn't require chilling time. So I tried this recipe and WOW they were amazing. Add funfetti icing on top & it's practically addicting. 

But alas...I forgot to save it. So I made a couple other recipes and just knew they weren't it. Until I recently found it again and made another batch. One bite & I knew! This was it. 

Recipe credit for these wonderful cookies goes to LifeLoveandSugar She has recipes for frosting to top these cookies off, but like I mentioned--Funfetti icing does the trick if you're looking for something more simple!


Ingredients:

2 3/4 cups all purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature (If I forget to set out the butter I microwave til softened, but not melted. Just in 10 second increments.)

1 cup + 2 TBSP granulated sugar

2 TBSP light brown sugar

1 egg

2 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup sugar for rolling balls in (we don't do this because it's a bit too sweet with frosting as well)


Recipe:

Preheat oven to 350*

Line Baking sheet with parchment paper

Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in med sized bowl and set aside.

Cream butter and sugars together in large bowl until light in color and fluffy. 

Add egg and mix until well combined.

Add vanilla and mix until combined.

Add dry ingredients and mix until dough is dough is combined. It will be thick but not sticky. Once it's mixed, use spatula to help it come together to form more of a ball (mine was quite crumbly at first and this helped it to come together.)

Create 1 1/12 TBSP sized balls of dough and roll in extra sugar if you're choosing to. Place on lined cookie sheets and put in oven for 7-8 minutes. I like mine less 'done' so I go for 7 min. Remove just before edges are golden. They'll be puffy at first but will deflate once out. 

Rest on cookie sheet for 4-5 min then place on wire racks to cool completely.

That's it! The most delicious sugar cookie recipe. I'm happy to have added this one to my blog so I don't make the wrong recipe again.

Enjoy!

With heart from the home,

Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

 I had a few hours to myself today and decided to search for a good single serving chocolate chip cookie recipe. I found one by cookingclassy.com and thankfully it turned out so great! It was similar to the taste and size of Crumbl Cookies chocolate chip cookie (they are my favorite!) The dough is a very crumbly consistency so I recommend once you have your baking sheet lined with parchment paper to just dump it on top and form it into a large disc. I had a hard time trying to get the dough to come together so I opted to do this instead. See the recipe below! Ingredients: 2 TBSP butter (I used unsalted) 3 TBSP packed light-brown sugar. 1 pinch of salt. 1 TBSP whisked egg (crack egg in bowl and mix up well then scoop out 1 TBSP and add to your bowl.) 1/4 tsp vanilla. 1/3 cup all purpose flour. 1/8 tsp baking soda. 3-4 TBSP chocolate chips.  Recipe: Melt butter in microwave until only a little left is unmelted. mix together so that all is melted. Place butter in fridge to cool s...

Banana Bread Recipe

 When it comes to banana bread I prefer less sweet. I've also realized I'm not a fan of adding chocolate chips to my banana bread--the flavors don't blend well to me! This banana bread is just sweet enough and really yummy with blueberries. A tip I've found helpful is to coat your blueberries in a small amount of flour before folding into the batter. It keeps them from sinking to the bottom.  Here is our favorite banana bread recipe! Ingredients: 3 ripe bananas, mashed. 1 cup sugar 1 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 cup melted butter 1 egg 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour 1 cup blueberries or your choice of add-in. Recipe: Preheat oven to 325* and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Mix bananas, sugar, butter and egg in large bowl. Mix flour and baking soda in separate bowl. Add flour mixture to banana mixture and mix until well combined. Add salt and mix well.  If folding in blueberries, add a small amount of flour to berries and then add to bowl, folding until well distributed. Bak...
