Time 20m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2/3 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1/2 cup butter, softened
3 tablespoons organic coconut oil or 3 tablespoons butter
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt & cardamom. Set aside.
In a large mixer bowl, cream together the butter, coconut oil and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Beat in the eggs and vanilla until smooth.
Mix in the flour mixture until just combined. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log (about 2 to 2 1/2 inches thick) and roll in plastic wrap or parchment. Place in the fridge to chill for at least an hour (or overnight -- this would be a great place to freeze the dough logs for a future treat. Just thaw them overnight in the fridge and bake as usual!).
When you're getting ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375ºF. Line a few baking sheets with parchment paper. Take each roll out of the fridge, slice into rounds about 1/2" thick and place on the baking sheets about 1 inch apart.
Bake until just barely golden brown on bottom, about 8-10 minutes.

Cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Glaze :.
For glaze, combine icing sugar and milk and whisk until smooth. Brush cookies with glaze and allow to dry on cooling rack for 1 hour.
