Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 30 cookie

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baker's ammonia
1 cup unsalted butter, high-quality, cubed, and softened
½ cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
additional topping, chocolate chips, whole almonds, or raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275˚F (135˚C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baker's ammonia.
  • In a separate medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer on low speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the vanilla and continue beating until fully combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat to incorporate.
  • Roll about 1 ounce of dough at a time in your hands to make walnut-sized balls. They will be small, about ½ inch (1 ¼ cm) wide. Place the balls of dough on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch (2 ½ cm) of space between each cookie. Using a flat-bottomed measuring cup, gently press down on the cookies to flatten.
  • Top each cookie with 3 chocolate chips, a single almond, or raisins.
  • Bake the cookies for 30 minutes, or until the bottoms are light golden brown and the edges are crispy.
  • Enjoy!
