I made these tonight. They were super easy to make. The flavor was great. My cookie press wasn't working right, so I used a small (1 1/2") ice cream scoop, then press them down a bit with my potato masher. I am adding these to my cookie trays this year. I baked them 12 min. at 340°. Yield: 24 cookies.
ReplyI tried making these butter cookies and they were delicious. I'm just wondering why my cookies do not get brown on the sides even I added more baking time? 17 minutes to be exact. On what rack should I put my cookie sheet inside the oven? For now I put it on the third rack.
ReplyHi Gina. I noticed that the color and weight of the cookie sheets make a difference. (The lighter the weight and the darker the pan, the quicker they brown.) I always place the cookie sheet in the middle of the oven. I just keep checking them when it's close to the time. I hope this helps.
ReplyI always put on second rack and comes out perfect.
ReplyI just made these cookies and they came out GREAT! I decorated my cookies with colored sugar. Please try!
ReplyThis recipe is true to its title.. melt in our mouth. Butter cookies has always been my kids favorites. The cookies brown perfectly after 15 mins in the oven. I use a wide star nozzle and the cookies turn out to big😅
ReplyWhat have you used salter or unsalted butter ??
ReplyAlways unsalted.
ReplyHey :') Can i use vegetable oil or flavorless oil instead of butter to get the same buttery flavor though the title says butter cookies because im in short of butter right now?
ReplyHi, No, in this recipe you can't replace the butter with oil.
ReplyBtw whats the name of the background music u used?
