SOUR CREAM CUTOUT COOKIES
Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Mix sugar, shortening, margarine, vanilla and egg. Mix in sour cream. Mix dry ingredients and add by portions to wet ingredients. Make dough into rounded ball or disk and cover with plastic. Refrigerate overnight. Roll to 1/4 inch thickness, cut cookies. Can sprinkle with sugar if you will not be frosting them later. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until no indentation remains when touched, 6 to 8 minutes.
Tips:
- Use cold butter: This will help keep the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the dough, making the cookies lighter and more tender.
- Add the eggs one at a time: This will help prevent the dough from curdling.
- Stir in the dry ingredients gradually: This will help prevent the dough from becoming tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out: This will help the cookies hold their shape better in the oven.
- Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/8 inch: This will help ensure that the cookies bake evenly.
- Cut out the cookies using a sharp cookie cutter: This will help prevent the cookies from tearing.
- Bake the cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes: This will help ensure that the cookies are cooked through without overbrowning.
Conclusion:
Sour cream cutout cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your cookies turn out perfectly every time. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try!
