Instructions
Make cookie butter:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and powdered sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy. Gradually add the flour and stir until everything is well combined. If the dough feels too soft, add an extra 2–3 tablespoons of flour.
Shaping the Cookies:
- Option 1 - Cut-Out Cookies: Flatten the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 1 hour. Roll out the chilled dough to 1/4-inch (1/2 cm) thickness, then cut it into your preferred shapes (such as hearts, circles, or rectangles).
- Option 2 - Slice-and-Bake Cookies: Roll the dough into a log shape, wrap it in plastic wrap, and freeze for 30 minutes. Once firm, slice the log into 1/4-inch (1/2 cm) thick rounds.
- Option 3 - Piped Cookies: Transfer the dough into a piping bag fitted with a large star or round tip. Pipe the dough directly onto the prepared baking sheet into your desired shapes, such as spirals, rosettes, or sticks. If the dough is too thick to pipe, let it soften slightly at room temperature. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before baking.
- Bake: Arrange the cookie shapes on the prepared baking tray, leaving a little space between each one. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden.
