today we’regonna make super soft sugar cookies nowthis actually is one of the most popularrecipes on our site because it tastes sogood so you can make them all year roundany holidays any cookie cutter shape allyear round cookie no it’s like achocolate chip cookie but better I couldeat them all year round okay you want toget started you wanna yeah okay so we’regonna start with our butter and you need3/4 cup of softened butter I hope youknow I always so I don’t take my butterout until like last minute from theshoes and it’s always harder theconsistency is bad that great so mytrick I found when I am trying to softenmy butter is all if I don’t take it outahead of time pain I cut it up intolittle tbsp remarks and then microwaveit for 7 second intervals stir it andthen it will just slowly soften witheach seven-second in remotely and itgets to this consistency so if you’relike me and you’re like a last-minutecooker gosh your Baker I guess we’rebaking today yesthat’s how you do it I love it I love itso we’ve got butter and then we’re gonnaadd our two eggs you want to crack theeggs yes ma’am and then to get chills -the eggs are also going to add our sugarand our mom is she’s hardcore in thekitchen and she is dedicated to a woodenspoon but I’m just not as strong as herso I always do the electric hand mixerso you can make this in a KitchenAid aBosch or with the hand mixer or goold-school with the woman soonthere we go do you care if I mix this upgo for it awesome all right so what’sthe texture you want so it’s okay if ithas a few little butter lumps in ityou’re not gonna get them all out you’llget less out when you add the flour okayokay so you just want it kind extremelykind of frothy it’s looking good but ifit’s not all the way smooth don’t stressit because it won’t it’ll work its wayout when you have the flourthis picture you can do this for aboutlike a minute okay 30 seconds and so youtell me when to stop that looks goodokay we’re gonna stop okay so now we’regoing to add our flour our okay how muchflour you have here this is two and ahalf cups okay of flour and then do youwant to mix that in yes and then whileyou’re mixing that in we have some saltokay yep awesomeI just don’t want it to like flourexploit that so mix your celebration andEcklie flour confetti right okay andthen add the vanilla creamthere we go the vanilla is threeteaspoons of vanilla Cuban a churchthought I’m like a little bit a lot butI think that’s what gives it thatvanilla taste to it so yummy so I’m justgonna add three teaspoons of vanilla andthis is vanilla extract not your vanillawhat do you use your vanilla or vanillayou know it kind of depends on whateverI feel like I said no you need to usejust pure vanilla but I’m curious whatare your opinions on you know extractpure vanilla I need to switch becauseI’m on the vanilla extract I am sorryokay on there so I’m gonna add ourbaking powderokay this is two teaspoons okay mixerall a goit’s not I don’t know the wooden spoonI’m gonna go no all right how’s thatlooking that’s looking goodright okay and then the secret part tothis recipe I’m ready to refrigerateyour cookie dough okay okay so we’regonna take this
