Christmas Sugar Cookies

Step 1

Pre-heat the oven to 350ºF.  In a small mixing bowl combine the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar, with an electric mixer for 1 minute.  Add in the egg and extracts, beat again to combine, 30 seconds.

Step 3

Gradually add in the dry ingredients, mixing on low or by hand with a spatula.

Step 4

Place 1/4 cup colored sugar in a bowl for rolling the cookies. I used 2 separate bowls, one with red sugar and another with green sugar. Use a cookie scoop to form balls. Roll each ball in the sugar. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on a silicone lined baking sheet. Bake in batches as needed.

Step 5

Bake for 12-14 minutes.
