I’ve been looking for a good drop sugar cookie recipe and i found this on pintrest, so I was like “oh hey, lets give it a go” They didnt spread as much as i expected, which is good because they’re nice and fluffy, but that also makes them hard to decorate. I didn’t have parchment paper so I used cooking spray and flour, which worked pretty well. I have a light cooking sheet so i needed to add 20 degrees. they’re nice and soft and chewy, and i love them!
Found these on Pinterest and they are delicious! Had to bake mine longer and made 29 cookies using a teaspoon scooper. Thanks for sharing!
Made these and ate all of them the same day. Im making them again right now and im doubling the recipe ☺
These are great! I was kind of skeptical at first but decided to try them. So glad I did😋 This is my new “go to” sugar cookie recipe. (unless I want cut outs, of course 😊)
Literally just made these and I am amazed! I am not a sugar cookie can but these are delish!! Made 12 large cookies, only had to take extra 3 minutes, and used dark brown sugar instead, it’s what I had on hand. They taste like caramel cookies! Going to double batch of next time!
They were amazing and i rolled them in colored sugar.
I made the gluten free version of these cookies and they are DELICIOUS! I used Cup 4 Cup flour. I love lemon so I substituted lemon extract for the vanilla. I baked my cookies in the convection oven, and they did spread quite a bit. I was looking for a no-fuss gluten free cookie recipe without a million complicated ingredients, and this fits the bill perfectly. This recipe is a definite keeper!
