Procedure and Methods

- Use high-quality butter that contains at least 82% butter fat. This will make for a more flavorful and chewy sugar. - Make sure the butter is softened before you cream it with the sugar. This will help to incorporate air and create a smooth and creamy mixture. - Chill the sugar for at least 30 minutes before you roll it out. This will help to prevent the cookies from sticking to the counter and tearing. - Use a sharp, serrated to cut out the cookies. This will give you clean, even results. - Bake the cookies at a low temperature until they are just starting to brown around the edge. This will help to prevent them from over-browning or becoming too crispy. - Let the cookies cool completely on a wire before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from becoming too soft or runny. - Use a thick, spreadable frosting for the cookies. This will help to ensure that the frosting doesn't drip or run off the cookies. ###
