Description

Super soft but sturdy sugar cookies with a delicious vanilla flavor. Best ones I've made yet. The cornstarch helps keep the consistency.

Ingredients
  • 1 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 cup vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance®)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • all-purpose flour for dusting
Directions
  1. 1. Beat confectioners' sugar and margarine together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
  2. 2. Whisk 2 1/2 cups flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and baking soda together in a separate bowl. Beat flour mixture into creamed butter mixture on medium-low speed just until dough is combined. Separate dough into 2 balls and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  3. 3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  4. 4. Dust dough with flour and roll into 1/4-inch thick pieces on a work surface. Cut cookies into desired shapes using cookie cutters and arrange on a baking sheet.
  5. 5. Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are just beginning to turn brown, 10 to 14 minutes. Let cookies rest on baking sheet, 5 to 10 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool.
