Soft jumbo sugar cookies with a cloud of pink frosting are perfect for any holiday.. I made these for my nephew's pre-school valentine party.. I'm sure there are going to be a hit!
Cookies:
3 cups all purpose flour
2 sticks butter at room temp.
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla bean paste
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350ยบ.
Whisk dry ingredients together in a bowl & set aside.
In a mixer bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, mix in eggs one at a time and vanilla bean paste until well incorporated. Add the dry ingredients in slowly until well combined. Chill for at least an hour to stiffen the dough. Form the dough into 1/4 cup balls and flatten slightly with a glass bottom.
Bake 8-10 mins or until just the edges of cookies start to turn a little brown.
Frosting:
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 tsp vanilla
3 Tbsp milk
3 cups confectioners sugar
Whisk butter, vanilla and milk together. Slowly add in powdered sugar.
Enjoy!
