Simple Vanilla Sugar Cookies

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 cup All purpose flour
• ½ cup +2 tablespoons granulated sugar – divided
• 1 pinch Salt
• ¼ teaspoon Baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon Baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
• ¼ cup Butter – room temperature
• 1 large Egg yolk
• 2½ tablespoons Whole cream
• ½ teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions

• 1 In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar (½ cup), salt, baking powder,
  baking soda and nutmeg. Cut in the butter to form fine crumbs and set the bowl
  aside.
• 2 In a small bowl beat together the yolk, cream and vanilla.
• 3 Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and combine to form a dough. Cover
  the bowl with plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• 4 Pre-heat the oven to 350F (180C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• 5 While the oven is pre-heating, place 2 tablespoons of sugar on a plate, roll the
  dough into 1 inch balls, roll them in the sugar and place them on the prepared
  baking sheet. Lightly Flatten the dough with a fork (dip the fork in flour to
  avoid it sticking to the cookies) and bake them approximately 9-11 minutes or
  until golden and flat with a few cracks on the top.
• 6 Cool the cookies for 5 minutes on the baking sheet then move to a wire rack to
  cool completely. Enjoy!
