    I'll have to give this recipe a try. I used to have a home-based cookie business and I found my go-to recipe on the Wilton cake forum; it's called simply "Melissa's Sugar Cookies." It's very similar to this recipe, but it has no leaveners of any kind, so the edges stay sharp and there is no puffing. It also has an extra 1/4-1/2 cup of flour, so the cookies are more like a shortbread - not very sweet, so when they're decorated with colored sugars, glaze, frosting, or royal icing, the sweetness level is just right. But the best part of that recipe was that the dough requires zero chilling; you can roll out the dough, cut the cookies, and bake them right after making the dough. The recipe didn't call for almond extract, but I always added about 1/4 teaspoon because it just adds a complexity of flavor beyond plain vanilla. I will say that about 5 years after I left the baking biz, I got a call from someone who'd had one of my cookies. She'd kept the wrapper for years and told me it was one of the best cookies she'd ever had. (Even though I was no longer in the business, I wanted to bake her a dozen cookies just for her kind words.) But I'm intrigued by ATK's recipe even though I don't want to have to chill the dough.

    An exceptional recipe for small batch sugar cookie cutouts. I’ve been making these since the first airing of this video on PBS, and they are ALWAYS easy to roll out, cut, bake, and decorate! And…the best part…they are tender and delicious!

    Well, I added a T of almond milk and, since I am out of Almond extract, used peppermint extract. I didn't use a food processor, I used my stand mixer for all the wet. And I used my Magic Bullet to grind down the sugar! Worked perfectly. The idea of rolling between parchment paper is smart. It's chilling now. Thanks. Merry Christmas.

    This is exactly what I wanted to know. I really like Julia because she asks all the questions I would ask, and she's cut-the-fluff and get-the-job-done person. I do always wonder, however, how they always have perfect baking pans with no burned-on specks of grease. 😀

    I made these sugar cookies and decorated them based on this recipe, delicious! Not overly sweet, just right. I did my best with the decorating, the "flooding" technique was on point! My cookie decorating doesn't hold up to Dan Souza's that is for sure!

    Recipe is behind a paywall. Here are my typed notes on ingredient amounts. You’re on your own for steps.
    Wet:
    1 lg egg
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    ¾ tsp salt
    ¼ tsp almond extract
    Dry:
    2 ½ c all purpose flour
    ¼ tsp baking powder
    ¼ tsp baking soda
    Plasticized butter:
    1 c granulated sugar, processed into superfine sugar
    16 Tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut in ½ inch pieces
    Royal icing:
    2 ⅔ c confectioners sugar
    2 lg egg whites
    ½ tsp vanilla extract (or colorless vanilla flavoring if you need white, or use white food coloring)
    ⅛ tsp salt
    My note: 1 cup granulated sugar weighs 200 g while 1 cup superfine/bakers/castor sugar weighs 225 g. So if you want to be precise substitute superfine (aka bakers or castor) by weight instead of by volume. I don’t think it will make a significant difference in this recipe but just note different grinds of sugar can affect substitution. Measuring by weight in baking is always more accurate and can sometimes make a big difference in baking success. No idea what method they used for measuring the flour (spoon, fluff, sift or just scoop) and the method used can significantly affect measurement.
    If they don’t state egg size, assume large (50g). If they don’t state whether the butter is salted or unsalted, assume unsalted especially if salt is added in the recipe. If they say “vanilla” assume vanilla extract, especially when baking or the vanilla is a “key player” as Alton Brown would say.
    Their royal icing recipe is pretty traditional but I’ve seen some better, including better instructions on getting the right consistencies for outlining and flooding. A quick search of UA-cam will get you some better Royal icing recipes and instructions imo.
    Edited to add steps:
    Whisk together “wet ingredients” and set aside.
    Whisk together “dry ingredients” and set aside.
    Put granulated sugar into a food processor and process 30 seconds to make superfine sugar. Skip this step if using baker’s/caster/superfine sugar instead of granulated.
    Add cold butter pieces to sugar in food processor all at once and process until sugar is incorporated, about 30 seconds. (This is plasticized butter.)
    Add wet ingredients to plasticized butter in food processor. Process for 10 seconds.
    Pour in the dry ingredients all at once and process for 30 seconds or until the dough looks homogeneous but crumbly.
    Knead about 10 seconds to bring together into a ball. Divide dough, flatten into a rough oval then roll out each half between pieces of parchment paper to a thickness of ⅛”.
    Chill for 1.5 hours before cutting out.
    Cut out cookies and transfer them to a parchment lined cookie sheet.
    Bake at 300°F for 14-17 minutes.
    Rest for 5 minutes before transferring them to a rack to cool completely.
    Royal icing
    2 ⅔ c confectioners sugar
    2 lg egg whites
    ½ tsp vanilla extract
    ⅛ tsp salt
    Use 2 teaspoons of meringue powder and 2 tablespoons water to substitute for EACH egg white if you prefer not to use raw eggs.

    I made these cookies today and they are incredible. The method is foolproof!!
    I have always avoided cutout sugar cookies in the past - the dough would be rock hard and then stick to the board and rolling pin. I would add more flour and have a tough, ugly cookie. But not anymore with this magical recipe! (I did the recipe exactly.)

    I made two batches of these because I do not own a stand mixer, follow his instructions on the timing ( I used the stopwatch on my phone) I had to add a little more flour once I turned it out to make it less sticky. The only thing I noticed is that the cookies did spread even though I chilled the dough for 1.5 hours so my spiders and pumpkin cookies looked a little odd. The cookies were delicious, though. Better to stick to cookie cutters that do not have much detail.

    There is an alternative to wax-paper and parchment paper for preventing tortilla dough from sticking to a tortilla press. I imagine that a similar technique could be applied to prevent cookie dough from adhering to the cutting board. I have a friend who cuts disposable plastic bags into almost-perfect flat circles (much nicer than the original bags). It is a bit like pushing a cloth napkin through a wooden napkin ring and cutting parallel to the napkin ring with scissors. My friend does not use a napkin ring, she uses only her hands and some scissors and the bags. The disposable plastic grocery bags can be re-used in an environmentally friendly way by cutting them into very flat almost perfect circles. Then the plastic grocery bag circle is placed above the cutting board and dough is made flat. The plastic grocery bag peels off of the dough easily and the dough does not stick to the wooden cutting board ("wooden tablet" or "tabla de Madera" in the language from her childhood.

    How long will the cookies last in a container for instance? If somebody could answer my question, I would appreciate it very much! I would like to prepare some cookies in advance for my baby shower :)

    Aaaak -- can't find my almond extract! Do these work without it? Would another extract be good?

    I just recently bought America's Test Kitchen cook book! That is a big heavy book! I hope that recipe is in that book =)

    Is there an alternate method of bringing all the ingredients together? I don’t have a food processor and use a stand mixer. Thank you for the tips.

      Use a pastry blender to cut in butter and sugar. Using a fork will take longer, but will work. Once creamed together you can use your stand mixer to mix egg & extracts. When you add flour mixture...only do for a brief moment and finish incorporating with a spatula. Then put on a mat to knead a bit. This recipe is focusing on using cold butter, super fine sugar, and rolling out prior to chill and rest. Be sure to let it rest for the flavors to develop before baking. You can make the cookies thicker than the 1/8 he's doing...just stay by your oven to not over bake. Best to have an oven thermometer. Happy baking!
