We have some friendly faces in this recipe for Cat & Bunny Cookies! Using delightful cookie cutters shaped as animals, we’ve designed these cookies that hold a treat—though we use regular sugar cookie dough in this recipe, we encourage you to experiment with different tastes and textures!
Interested in the behind the scenes of these cookies? Right this way:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 an egg
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 cup flour
1 tsp. vanilla extract
pinch of salt
almonds
Instructions:
Leave butter out to soften.
Preheat oven to 350°F or 175°C.
Cream together softened butter and sugar to make a frosting-like mixture; then add your egg and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, combine your flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold this into your wet mixture; once you have a dough-like consistency, form into a ball and roll out evenly.
Take your animal-shaped cookie cutters and cut out as many cookies as you can from your dough.
Gently press an almond into the body of the cookie; then gently fold and press each arm over the almond to make it look like they are holding or hugging it.
Use a toothpick to make two small holes for eyes.
Bake for ~10 minutes, until the cookies turn golden at the edges.
Voila! You’ve made your very own Cat & Bunny Cookies!
