These Fragrant Lavender Sugar Cookies are a delightful treat, combining the sweetness of sugar with the unique floral notes of lavender, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup butter
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons dried lavender
Method
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder until combined. Next, add the softened butter and a beaten egg, mixing until the dough is smooth and creamy.
Pour in a hint of vanilla extract and fold in the dried lavender, mixing gently until all ingredients are well combined.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the cookie dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each dollop.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are fragrant and the edges turn a lovely light golden color.
