Here’s a recipe for Amish Sugar Cookies using your ingredients:
Table of Contents
ToggleIngredients:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup canola oil
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- Optional: Additional granulated sugar for rolling the cookies
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, powdered sugar, butter, and canola oil. Beat them together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until the mixture is well combined.
-
Add the Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the salt, baking soda, and flour.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
-
Form the Cookies:
- Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). If you like, you can roll them in additional granulated sugar for a little extra sweetness and texture.
- Place the cookie dough balls on a baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
Flatten the Cookies:
- Gently press each dough ball down with a fork or the back of a spoon to flatten the cookies slightly. This helps them bake evenly.
-
Bake the Cookies:
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should still look soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
-
Cool and Enjoy:
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Amish Sugar Cookies are soft, sweet, and perfect for any occasion! Enjoy with a glass of milk or your favorite drink.
