My nephew is only 11 weeks old so he is still too young to be able to eat a cookie but I couldn't resist making him his 1st Easter cookie. I'm positive that his mom & dad will make sure it doesn't go to waste. I gave them to my sister this week and she couldn't wait until easter to eat hers.
I used one of my favorite cut out cookie recipes by Sugarbaker for this set of cookies. I was so happy to find a chocolate chip cut out recipe. I've used this for over a year now and it comes out great every time.
Print recipe here
1 c unsalted butter
1/3c granulated sugar
1/2 c light-brown sugar
1 large egg yolk
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 ½ c all-purpose flour {I think they got a little overzealous with the flour…try 2 cups first, and work your way up}
½ tsp salt
1 ½ c semi-sweet mini-chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift together the flour & salt. In another bowl, cream together the butter & sugars. Slowly add the flour & salt unti it’s completely mixed in. Add 1 ½ cups semi-sweet mini-chocolate chips to the dough by hand. Chill your dough for at least 30 minutes. Roll out dough and bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Sharp metal cookie cutters work best with this dough.
