Sugar Cookie Cutouts Recipe - The Lemon Bowl

Стъпки:

• 1. Combine butter, granulated sugar and vanilla in mixer bowl. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg and egg yolk; beat on low speed until blended. Gradually add flour and salt, beating just until blended.
• 2. Refrigerate dough, wrapped in plastic wrap, at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
• 3. Heat oven to 350°F. Work with ½ of the dough at a time, keeping remaining dough refrigerated. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to ¼-inch thickness. Cut out cookies using cookie cutters; place 1 inch apart on parchment paper-lined or ungreased baking sheets.
• 4. Bake in 350°F oven until edges are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on baking sheets 1 minute. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.
• 5. For icing: combine powdered sugar, meringue powder and water in mixer bowl. Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, 6 to 8 minutes. If icing is too thick, thin with small amount of additional water.
