Classic Sugar Cookies With Maldon Salt

Classic Sugar Cookies with Maldon Salt are a delightful twist on the traditional holiday treat. These cookies are soft and buttery with a hint of sweetness, enhanced by a sprinkle of flaky Maldon salt that balances the flavors perfectly. They’re perfect for decorating or simply enjoying as they are, making them a must-have addition to your Christmas cookie platter.

Cooking Steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This guarantees that your cookies bake evenly.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, add the room-temperature unsalted butter and granulated sugar. Using an electric mixer, cream them together on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add Egg and Vanilla: Crack in the large egg and pour in the vanilla extract. Mix on medium speed until fully incorporated.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix; you want the dough to be soft and slightly sticky.
6. Chill the Dough: For best results, cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This firming up will help the cookies maintain their shape while baking.
7. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
8. Shape the Cookies: Once the dough is chilled, scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
9. Flatten and Sprinkle Salt: Gently flatten each ball slightly with your fingertips to create a thicker disk shape. Sprinkle a tiny pinch of Maldon salt on top of each cookie.
10. Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers might look soft, but they will set as they cool.
11. Cool the Cookies: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
12. Enjoy: Once cooled, these cookies are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container for several days.

These Classic Sugar Cookies with Maldon Salt are perfect for sharing and will surely be a hit during the festive season! Enjoy decorating them or savoring their simple, salty-sweet goodness.

5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed. Continue mixing until just combined and avoid overmixing, as this can affect the texture of the cookies.
6. Chill the Dough: To help the cookies hold their shape, cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
7. Prepare Baking Sheets: Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats for easy removal of the cookies after baking.
8. Shape the Cookies: Once the dough has chilled, scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing each cookie about 2-3 inches apart to allow for spreading.
9. Flatten and Sprinkle with Sea Salt: Gently press down on each dough ball to flatten slightly. Top each cookie with a pinch of sea salt, making sure it’s evenly distributed.
10. Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are crisp and the centers are just set. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

The simplicity of the ingredients allows the buttery flavor to shine, making these cookies a classic favorite that never goes out of style.
