Halloween Sugar Cookies...

Posted by Rachel Parcell on

It’s that time of year again when our favorite sugar cookie recipe my family has been using for years, since I was little girl, comes out! We bake these as a family starting during the Halloween season and don’t stop until Easter!! So yummy and one of our favorite family activity!!

I just made these for a cute little Halloween party I had for my kids. You can see the party details here!

Sugar Cookie Recipe:

Ingredients List for Dough::

2 cups *softened butter (I use unsalted but you can use either)

6 eggs

2 cups sugar *(heaping)

2 teaspoon vanilla *(I add a little extra)

2 teaspoon almond extract *(I add a little extra)

6 teaspoon baking powder

7 cups flour *(I don’t like mine too dry, I usually end up only using 5-6 cups of flour, your dough should still be a little sticky)

Instructions::

1. Mix wet ingredients with sugar then slowly add baking powder and slowly add flour.

2. Mix well (I love to use this Bosch mixer)

3. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes

4. Bake for *6-7 minutes at 375 on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. (In my oven I only cook them for 5-6 minutes. *I like them to be extra soft and they will continue to cook a bit after you pull them out, DON’T let them get golden brown).
