Thank you 4 sharing your recipe for sugar cookies. I don't own a fancy mixer either so everything is by hand for me also. However finding recipes w no mixer is almost impossible. Also ur super nice & don't talk too fast. Thank you.
God Bless You for sharing your skills with beginner bakers. All those little tips that make a difference in the presentation and taste. Most of us are gifting our efforts. This has been my most successful year for sugar cookies! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.!! The Best Is Yet to Come.
Love the grader idea I’m always forgetting to take my butter out, or I just get that hankering to last minute bake you’d think I’d leave butter out all the time cause I loveeee baking haaa
I was looking to make cookies with my granddaughter and searched a few recipes, we came across this one and decided to try it. It was simple, straight to the point and the final outcome was delicious. Because I love almonds, I added a tsp of almond extract. We had so much fun making these cookies that the second time we made them my mother joined... Three generations of first-time bakers :-). Thank You for sharing this recipe with us. The icing was also very good!
Beautiful cookies!!! I am a beginner cookie baker. So this is excellent. Love those wee people you took the time to read to!! Thank you for the lovely vjdeo. Merry Christmas!
I'm 58& just got a mixer about 12 years ago... l triple batched 20 types of Xmas cookies for friends& family every year! Think they turned out better when l did them by hand!!! 😂😂😂
thankyou for sharing! love how simple it is, just shows you don't need fancy equipment and you make this so accessible for everyone! thankyou for sharing:) may you be well and happy always and stay safe!
Thanks so much for this awesome video! This was the first time I ever made sugar cookies. I followed your instructions and recipe and did not change a thing. The cookies came out perfect! It was pretty easy. I will be making this cookie recipe again❤
I made this recipe exactly the same but the dough was too sticky ( maybe i added a lot of Vanilla Extract 🤔) anyway i hadded more flour and that just did it it was verry good ! thank you it was my first time making these 🫶🏻
This is the best video !!!!! Can’t wait to try this recipe. I was always afraid to use royal icing I make fondant...cut out the shapes and put it on when I pull out the cookies from the oven. This is so much easier!!!! Thank you 🤗
Woah! They look great! I think I like your tactic of roll, cut, place and then chill. You can just take the pan right out of the freezer and pop it in the oven. I'm very excited to try these. I love sugar cookies 😍
this was jusst fun to watch and i like that method can you make dough and cook the next day. also whats that yellow thing you using on the dough on the other roll out
Snowed in up here in Kalamazoo Michigan by myself, I found your recipeI cut the cookies out with a solo cup and put strawberry jam on top they were awesome. I'll be having them with my coffee in the morning.
You are a lot of fun! Love your sweet music! If you press your cutter in flour or powdered sugar u won't need to poke the cookie dough out of the cutter. Use a fork or corn cob holder to pop bubbles before the icing sets. Shake off excess icing before placing on rack. Love Wilton Meringue Powder!
Hi, so here’s a few questions. How many cookies did your recipe make ? I’m a total beginner in the kitchen, once you’ve cooked, & cooled & royal frosted your cookies, MUST THEY GO IN THE FRIDGE, or can they be put in a cookie jar or tin, & LASTLY, since these are home made, what’s the freshness factor with these cookie? How quickly must we eat them & when should we toss them? I know weird questions BUT I’m a total Beginner here. I’d appreciate your help in answering these questions, I’ve got a beautiful baby girl turning One in about a month & I want to make her cookies for her party
1. I LOVE all these great questions!! 2. I love that you are exploring the world of baking! It’s so fun to learn. Ok, so the recipe is for 2 dozen cookies, but it all depends on how big your cookie cutters are, and how thin/thick you roll the cookies. I frequently get around 3 1/2 dozen out of it. The cookies do not need to be refrigerated about being cooked and frosted. Room temperature is 👌🏻. I recommend consuming within 2-4 days, but some customers say they are still great after 10-15 days. 🤷🏼♀️ mine never last that long in my house though. 😅 You will do a great job making cookies for your baby girl! You can do it!!
Hi! I haven’t made a video in about 2 years because of covid homeschooling and taking care of my 6 littles…. But I’m thinking about taking it up again!!
hello. I like the minimalist appliance approach! what is your general opinion on the idea of substituting half butter with applesauce in cookies (not cakes)?
You know, I’ve never done that before for cookies. (I HAVE for cakes and breads) I would think it would make the cookies a little too moist, and they wouldn’t hold up their form as well. But it would make a great experiment to try and find out!! 😀 I would love to know how that goes!
Yes this video was made in the fall time, and the purpose of it was just to show how to get the cookies to maintain their shape and not spread. I’m sorry if you were expecting to see decorations of Christmas cookies. I will have to put out a video for that in the future! In the meantime, you could check out my gingerbread decorating video for some ideas.
Hi! This recipe will make about 24 cookies approximately. (Sometimes more if your cookie cutters are small, or less if your cookie cutters are large) If you want each of your 50 guests to have 2 cookies, I would make 4 batches. Hope that helps!!
Thank you for the video. Any tips on keeping cookies soft? Mine tend to get pretty crunchy after 4 days or so. Better storage solution or something I can add to the recipe that will still keep a crisp cutout? Thanks so much!
Yes! Store them in an airtight container with a piece of bread in the container! The cookies will soak up the moisture in the bread, and become soft again 😀
Sometimes if my dough is especially warm, I have to freeze them longer (around 15-20 mins). Or if may be possible that the cookies are too thick, in which case you would need to roll the dough a bit thinner. Hope that helps! 😀
