These 3 Ingredient Sugar Cookies are on the list of my top 3 favorite cookies ever. This recipe is so simple, with ingredients you probably already have on hand. This cookie is chewy on the inside, but crispy on the edges.
0 Using a stand mixer (or a handheld one) cream together the butter, sugar, and vanilla. You should have a very smooth but grainy batter.
1 Add in the flour and mix well until you have a tacky dough. The dough should feel something like play dough.
2 Take a small ice cream scoop and scoop out 11/12 cookies. You can also use a measuring spoon as well.
3 Roll each one into a ball and dip in sugar. Repeat this step for every single cookie.
4 Once the cookies are rolled and dipped into sugar, place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave space between each one as they will spread out.
5 With the bottom of a glass, press each one until they are flat ensuring each cookie is the same thickness and size. About ⅛-¼ inch thickness.
6 Bake in a preheated 325 F oven (162C) for 15 minutes. The cookies should be a touch underbaked in the middle which will ensure that chewy texture.
7 Let them cool completely WITHOUT touching them for at least 15 minutes. Store in an airtight glass container as they will last you a week at room temperature.
