Chewy Citrus Sugar Cookies

• 份量: 18 cookies
• 总时间: 40 minutes

配料

8.5 oz granulate sugar

1/4 tsp lemon zest

1/4 tsp orange zest

1/4 tsp chopped rosemary or thyme (optional)

2 cups all purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1.5 teaspoons cornstarch

1/4 tsp salt

12 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled*

1 large egg, room temperature

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/3 cup granulated sugar, for rolling

步骤

Zest orange and lemon (and fresh herbs in using) into the sugar to release their oils and produce the best flavor

Whisk together flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt in a bowl.

In a separate bowl or stand mixer, combine the melted butter with citrus sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.

Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until well combined

Portion dough into balls (around 2 tablespoons each) and place on a baking tray. Chill the balls of dough for at least 1 hour or overnight

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Roll the dough into balls, then roll each ball in granulated sugar. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced apart.

Bake until the edges are set but the centers are still soft, about 10-12 minutes.

Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
