Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- Frosting of your choice (store-bought or homemade)
- Sprinkles for decoration
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden. The centers might look a little underbaked, but they will continue to cook as they cool!
- Once done, remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, frost them with your favorite frosting and sprinkle some colorful sprinkles on top for that extra pop!
And there you have it! Perfectly soft and delicious Copycat Lofthouse Sugar Cookies ready to be enjoyed. Trust me, these will be a hit at any occasion. Happy baking, y’all!
