These Easter bunny sugar cookies bring soft texture and clean edges that hold cute details. They’re easy to roll, cut and decorate for a cheerful holiday bake.
Sift your the flour, corn starch and salt in a large bowl. Give it a whisk.
In your standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together
Add the eggs while mixing. Scrape down sides of the bowl
Add vanilla extract.
Pour in the flour mixture and mix until everything is well incorporated.
Put the dough in a plastic bag, flatten it together, then chill it in the refrigerator so it firms up.
Once the dough is chilled, place it on a rolling matt, sprinkle with flour and roll out with a rolling pin. Move the dough around so to prevent it from sticking.
Use a circular cookie cutter to cut out your cookies. Take away extra scraps to re-roll for more cookies.
Place them on a non-stick baking sheet and bake at 375°F for 12 minutes.
Let them cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet then transfer on to a cooling rack to cool completely. Decorate your cookies however you like.
Notes
Measure right: Spoon and level flour so the dough doesn’t turn dry. Don’t overmix: Stop as soon as the dough comes together. Keep it cold: If dough softens, chill again for cleaner cuts. Roll evenly: Aim for the same thickness so cookies bake uniformly. Detail first: Pipe faces on cooled cookies for sharp lines.
