Pure Vanilla Cookie Easy Recipe that’s soft and gooey in the middle, and crispy on the outside. Easy to make, and a pure vanilla joy!
Sometimes simple is best, a good plain vanilla cookie is all you need in your life. We added extra vanillas than we use to do when we make cookies so that you can really smell and taste the vanilla.
I am telling you, when these cookies were baking, the smell was absolutely incredible. A pure vanilla cookie is what you need in your life right now!
There is something really magical about winter, and baking. It feels so much more comforting when you bake during the winter. There is nothing better than a warm house, that smells of freshly baked goods.
How To Make Pure Vanilla Cookie:
You will need:
1. Flour
2. Egg
3. Butter
4. Sugar – White & Brown
5. Bicarb + Baking Powder
6. Vanilla Extract
Optional:
1. Powdered Sugar
The recipe is literally your standard cookie dough, but with extra vanilla!
The cookie dough is made, by beating the sugars with the butter. The egg is added and mixed in. Then the rest of the ingredients are folded in.
The cookie dough is shaped into 2.30oz/65g balls. Then baked. Let the cookie cool slightly on the tray, so they can harden up before moving them to a wire rack.
We personally topped our cookies with vanilla icing, but this is optional.
