Sugar cookies

I’ve actually made these a few weeks ago.. it’s lying in my tupperware somewhere in the kitchen. Been wanting to decorate it with Royal icing, but I still couldn’t find the time. I am running here and there between preparing cakes for my second book, weekend classes and the usual housewife daily chores. Anyway, here’s how I made these delicious cookies (the base for Decorated cookies).
There are loads of recipe out there, this is the one that I used:
3 cups all-purpose flour (t.gandum) 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup unsalted butter (softened) 3/4 cup sugar 1 egg (large) 2 teaspoon vanilla essence (or other essence)Whisk the flour and add the salt into it. Cream the butter and sugar until it is mixed, probably about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the egg and essence. Scrap and continue mixing until all is blended. Turn the mixer to a slow speed, add the flour bit by bit until all is mix. Do not overmix. Done. Now here is the tricky part. The dough is very soft, you need to put it in the fridge for a while until it is hard enough to roll.
I am using parchment papers to ease the job. Scrap the dough onto the parchment paper. Then put another layer of parchment on top of the dough. Roll and flattened it.
Make some space in your fridge. I clear one whole shelf and transfer the whole thing, parchment paper with the dough in between, into the fridge. Let it cool and hardened, I think at least for half an hour.
Preheat the oven, about 350F. Remove the dough from the fridge and cut them with your cookie cutter. Arrange on your cookie pan which has been lined with parchment or non stick baking sheet, leaving 1/2 inch between the cookies. Bake for about 15 minutes until they turn golden around the edges. If the dough turns too soft, put it in the fridge again and repeat the process.
Give it a try, not that difficult after all. Cheers

Salam Yasmin,
Thanks for sharing the recipe. How long can I keep the cookies (with or without the icing) in a tupperware container?
I love making sugar cookies. I really love to make them around any holiday- I just switch out the cookie cutters! If you go to some really big outlet stores, you can buy a really cheap bucket full of all kinds of cutters for every occasion. Such a fun and festive treat that I’ve grown up loving!
Salam K.Min…saya dari Johor Bahru…nak tanye pasal royal icing…kebykan resipi omputih saya jumpa ade 2 jenis, 1 pakai meringue powder, 1 lagi pakai putih telur….yang mana satu lebih baik?…dan berapa lama icing tu bole tahan kalau pakai meringue powder? berapa lama pula boleh tahan kalau pakai putih telur?…tapi setahu saya, meringue powder tu mmg sgt mahal…xtau la berbaloi ke kalau nk pakai untuk jualan…harap k.min dapat menjawab soalan saya, saya ni baru belajar…cuba2 sendiri aje tgk dari buku dan internet…setakat ni belum sempat nak pergi join kelas…dan kelas decor cookies kat jb ni mcm x ade je…
hai… k.min….. best sgt tgk blog nie… mcm2 menda leh belajar… tp k.min, x faham pasal roya icing nie….. byk yg sy tengok kat web.. nak wat royal icing guna meringue powder…. tp ada gak yg guna kan putih telor… .actually yg mana ok…pastu royal icing nie kalau kita nak letak atas cookies pun boleh gak ke?
Oh wow!!! Your sugar cookies look cute! It will be my first time to make sugar cookies. I saw your cookies. They are just fantastic! I hope I will make my cookies as good as yours.
Thanks for sharing!
salam kak min, saye pun nak tau macam mana nak store sugar cookies nih…mase dry lepas frosting tu xmasuk angin ke?
Fazy, I guess tempoh simpan dia mcm biskut raya jugak.. dlm beberapa minggu.
SMS, thanks for dropping by.
Farhana, personally akak suka pakai meringue powder sebab malas nak guna telur. Lagi cepat dan tak messy. Ada yg ckp if pakai meringue just letak Royal icing tu kat luar, if pakai putih telur letak dlm fridge. Tahan dlm seminggu dua tapi semakin lama semakin tak elok qualitynye. Selamat mencuba ye.
Tinit, boleh pakai dua-dua. Memang boleh letak atas cookies. Dia akan jadi keras sebab dlmnye takde butter.
Hi Christine, how did your cookies turn out ? Good luck to you
Diana, tak masuk angin, tapi lepas kering cepat-cepat masuk tupperware.
salam kak yasmin…de x resepi tuk frosting biskut yg simple n sedap?leh gune buttercream x?
Salam, akak ingin bertanya bagaimana untuk menjaga biskut icing ini supaya tahan lama dalam keadaan yang baik rupa bentuknya. Akak pernah buat biskut icing ini tetapi ianya cepat rosak bila suhu bilik tinggi atau bila ianya ditinggalkan lama sikit dalam kereta. Boleh tolong bagi tips.
Terima kasih.
Hai yasmin,

thanks,

Salam Diana, boleh guna Royal icing to decorate the cookies, tgk next post ye.
Noor, biskut ni mcm biskut raya je, just masuk tupperware. And jgn bagi suhu panas sgt,sebab byk butterkan..
Hai Julie, I hv emailed you. Thanks.
dear kak min…tq byk2 for the kukis resipi…sedap n x manis…on going to be my doorgift f.c for my wed next week tq kak min for sharing..
salam, kak saya tanya mcm.saya buat fonden kan knp klu saya buat bungga dia x keras ya. blh x akak tlg ajar saya mcm nak buat.t.kaseh
salam kak min,
dari mana kita boleh dapatkan meringue powder ya?
salam kak min
nak tanya royal icing yang guna putih telur boleh di makan ke? saya ada terjumpa website omputih yang menyatakan tak boleh dimakan
Zaza, you r welcome
Ita, buat bunga kena pakai gumpaste sikit , campur dlm fondant tu. Fondant saja memang takkan mengeras.
Haniem, ada jual kat kedai bahan bakeri, kalau kat KL ni di Bake with Yen, ICCa.
Amy, boleh cuma ada risiko la sebab bhn mentah, cuba guna telur yg dah di sterilize.
kak min,
saya suke sgt kt squeeze bottle kak min. kak min beli kt mane? saya dh cube cari serata jb tp x jumpe.sbb akn dtg nk buat biskut utk nursery yg jage 4 org anak2 saya. nk sgt buat sugar cookies utk kwn2 ank2 saya.
Squeeze bottle tu di jb boleh cari di kedai Daiso di Jusco Bukit Indah.
tq,farhaa. nnti sya try cari
hi kak min…saya ingat nk buat sugar cookies ni tp rasa nya xnak buat royal icing, kalo saya nk gantikan dgn sprinkle yg warna warni tuh mcm mane plak utk saya lekat ke atas cookies tuh….puas saye goggle xdpt jln penyelesaian la…tolon ye kak min
Thanks Esue and Farhaa.
Jaja, cuba sapu telur and then sprinkle atas cookies tu, then bake balik sekejap.
Hi kak Min,
Biskut ni tak lemau ke? sbb ade tgk org decorate untuk event tunang, die gune btg lolipop and balut dgn plastik…mcm lolipop tu…
