ABC Cookies

INGREDIENTS 

• 2 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour 
• 1 t of baking soda
• 1/2 t of baking powder
• 1 cup butter (2 sticks), softened
• 1 3/4 cups sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 t vanilla (affiliate)
• 1/2 cup Wilton green chocolate melts (affiliate)
• Wilton white icing writer (affiliate)

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375° degrees.

Step 2: In a small mixing bowl, add flour, baking soda and baking powder.

Step 3: In a medium mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Step 4: Add egg and vanilla to sugared butter and mix for about 45 seconds.

Step 5: Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix until well-incorporated.

Step 6: Using a cookie scoop, form uniform balls out of the dough and place on parchment-lined cookie sheets.

Step 7: Bake 10-12 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool for at least 2 hours on a wire rack.

Step 8: Melt 1/2 cup of the green Wilton candy melts in the microwave for seconds. Stir until completely melted. Do not overheat or the melts will get too hard.

Step 9: Spread the melted candy on each sugar cookie and let cool for at least 1 hour.

Step 10: Using a tube of Wilton icing writer, alternate by drawing a straight, solid line across the cookie and a dotted line…resembling old-fashioned handwriting paper.

Repeat down the entire cookie. Let set for 30 minutes.

Step 11: Using the icing writer, draw cursive letters on each cookie. Let set for 30 minutes.

ENJOY!
