Cartoon Butter Cookies

Mommy baked some butter cookies for us last weekend.

Those cookies are cute as it was cut into cartoon shape.

There are Piglet, Minnie, Mickey, Pooh and Hello Kitty.

Those cartoon cookies are for the kids.

Mommy also prepared some for adults as below.

Strawberry Butter Cookies with star & heart shape.

The butter cookies recipe as below:

Ingredients:

150g butter at room temperature

100g icing sugar

1 egg

250g rising flour

Method:

1) Beat well butter and sugar till butter change to lighter color.

2) Add egg and continue to beat well.

3) Add in flour and mix well.

4) Wrap in plastic and keep the dough in fridge for at least 1 hour.

5) Roll the dough to 3mm thickness and cut into the shape you like.

6) Bake in oven at 180’C for 12-15min till golden brown.

This recipe not really give a good hardness on the dough to roll out and cut into desired cookies shape. It's too soft even mommy kept in fridge for more than an hour. This recipe is more appropriate for piping cookies. Mommy have to use a lot of flour to prevent it stick on the rolling pin and table. Mommy still try to find a better recipe for molding butter cookies.
