    STEP 1

    How to Bake Easy Quick Sugar Cookies in the Oven? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance so that it warms up to room temperature. Sift the flour. Thanks to this, it will be saturated with oxygen, and the finished cookies will turn out more tender. Turn on the oven to 190 degrees.

The cookies couldn't be simpler, but delicious. Watch the video for a similar sugar shortbread cookie recipe. I often bake for tea.

Made some quick sugar cookies in the oven today. I really liked how it turned out! Wonderful, sugary crispy crust on the outside and more tender on the inside. I added a little more flour to the dough and also added ground cinnamon. It stuck to my hands. I let it sit in the refrigerator for a while and it became a little less sticky. I greased my hands with sunflower oil when I tore off pieces of dough to form cookies. I dipped them on both sides in sugar and laid them out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. During baking, the cookies spread quite a lot and turned out to be almost twice as big as the original ones. They baked longer than indicated. We ate them with and without tea. I think you can add candied fruits, raisins or coconut flakes to the dough. But personally, I would reduce the sugar a little. Irisha, thanks for the super recipe!

Shortbread cookies are my favorite childhood treat! And the first dish that I prepared with my mother in the kitchen at the age of 12. This recipe is 100% tested! The cookies come out sweet, tender, and incredibly fragrant! The ingredients are easily available at any store. Here you don’t need to suffer and puff over baking for hours, everything is quite quick and simple. And the result is an A+! The only secret to the splendor of the finished products is to sift the flour more and more thoroughly! Real jam!

I don’t know why, but they spread all over my province, and it’s impossible to eat very, very sweet things. I followed the recipe exactly down to the gram.
