Sugar Cookies

           Hello readers! It autumn now, so I thought that I shoud share some awesome autumn recipes. Today we will be making sugar cookies. I don't like to eat sugar cookies when they are plain so I am going to be showing you how to make the icing as well. They are a great snack whether you are coming home from work, school, or even when you just want something sweet! Let's get started! 



      You will need:

  • granulated sugar
  • flour
  • butter 
  • sugar
  • one egg
  • baking soda
  • baking powder
  • salt
  • vanilla extract
    Let's get started! I decided to try a different format today, so look below for the steps.


          Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 Degrees
  2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper/ wax paper
  3. Combine the butter and sugar together and stir thoroughly
  4. Add the vanillla and egg (stir thoroughly)
  5. Add all the dry ingrediants to the mixture (except the sugar) and stir thoroughly
  6. Roll the mixture into balls (roll them in the sugar too) and place them a reasonable distance apart from each other on the baking sheet
  7. Put the cookies into the oven for about twenty minutes and then on a cooling rack for the same amount of time

     I bet you're wondering how this recipe has to relate with autumn at all. Well if you want to make autumn sugar cookies, stay tuned: there's more to come!
