Title: Easter Biscuit Easy
Ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 3/4 cup sugar
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Pastel-colored sugar sprinkles
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This may take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Using a cookie scoop or your hands, shape the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
7. Gently press down on each cookie ball with the bottom of a glass to flatten slightly. Sprinkle the tops with the pastel-colored sugar sprinkles, pressing them lightly into the dough.
8. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just golden. Be sure not to overbake to keep them nice and soft.
9. Once done, remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve these Easter Biscuit Easy cookies on a pretty platter and watch them disappear in no time. They are perfect for adding a festive touch to your Easter celebrations or as a delightful homemade gift for friends and family.
