Description

Simple and delightful sugar cookies made with just three ingredients: flour, sugar, and butter.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Gradually add the all-purpose flour and mix until just combined.
  4. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, watching for a golden hue around the edges.
  6. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks.

Notes

For added flavor, try mixing in a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Chilling the dough for 30 minutes can help maintain cookie shape during baking.
