Easy C Ut Out Cookies No Chill

Quick and easy cut out sugar cookie recipe! These simple one-bowl, no chill sugar cookies can be made from scratch in just 20 minutes.

I'm a huge fan of simple, easy cookie recipes. And these quick no-chill sugar cookies don't disappoint!

The cookies are made in one-bowl (fewer dishes!) and take just a few minutes to stir up. The cookies hold their shape beautifully and are the perfect base for fun and festive decorations.

Since they are so quick and easy, these sugar cookies are perfect for those times when you want to make homemade sugar cookies and don't want to wait for hours for the dough to chill.

How To Make No Chill Sugar Cookies

Begin by creaming the butter and sugar together until well-combined. Mix in the egg and vanilla until well-combined.

Stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined. Roll out the dough to ¼-inch thick on a powdered sugared surface.

Cut the dough into desired shapes. Place the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheets and bake!

What Is Cool Room Temperature Butter?

Cool room temperature butter is butter that's about 65 F. The butter should dent when pressed but otherwise hold its shape.

Making sure that butter is the correct temperature will help the cookies to hold their shape. Warm butter can cause the cookies to spread as they bake.

Do I Need To Chill Sugar Cookies?

Not with this recipe! This sugar cookie recipe doesn't require any chilling before the cookies can be baked.

Tips For Making No Chill Sugar Cookies

• Butter:The butter needs to be at the correct temperature to avoid the cookies baking out. Check out the section on the butter temperature above for more information.
• Powdered sugar: The powdered sugar helps to make the cookies tender. I also use powdered sugar in place of flour for rolling the sugar cookies.
• Vanilla: If you like a stronger vanilla flavor, feel free to increase the amount of vanilla to 1 tablespoon. You can also substitute in other flavors of extracts. Almond can be particularly good in sugar cookies.
• Flour: The key to making great sugar cookies is measuring the flour correctly. Packing in the flour will give you dry, crumbly cookies. I highly recommend weighing the ingredients to avoid this.

To measure the flour in cups, sift the flour, lightly spoon into the measuring cup, and then level. If you pack in the flour, the cookies will be dry and crumbly.
