Thermomix Sugar Cookies

Our Thermomix Sugar Cookies are made with just simple ingredients that you most likely already have at home. They are perfect any time of the year but especially at Christmas and Easter as they have the perfect consistency for decorating. Both the dough and the biscuits can be frozen.

Why you will love this recipe:

• This easy Sugar Cookies recipe is a great project to get the kids involved in, as they will love helping you roll out and cut the dough - and then decorate the biscuits of course! 
• This recipe is based on a classic Sugar Cookie recipe which I've converted over to the Thermomix.
• These Sugar Cookies take just a few minutes to make and then you just need to let the dough chill before rolling and cutting into shapes.
• Both the dough and cooked biscuits are freezer friendly.

Sugar Cookie Ingredients:

Please note you will find the full list of ingredients and method in the recipe card below.

• Butter - you will need to soften the butter before starting this recipe.
• Caster Sugar - also known as 'super fine' sugar
• Plain Flour - also known as 'all purpose flour'
• Egg - we use 70gram eggs in our recipes.
• Vanilla Extract - vanilla essence can also be used
• Baking Powder

How to make Sugar Cookies in a Thermomix

1. Mix the butter and sugar until pale and creamy.

2. Add the egg and mix.

3. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until combined.

4. Divide the dough in half and place into the fridge to chill. If adding sprinkles, mix through now before chilling the dough.

5. Roll the dough until 4mm thick and cut.

6. Transfer to baking tray.

7. Bake until golden at the edges.

Expert Tips when making this recipe:

• The time it takes to cream your butter with the sugar mixture can vary, especially if your butter hasn't quite been bought to room temperature.
• The mixture will be very soft once it has been combined, and you will need a spatula to help remove it from your Thermomix bowl. This is completely normal.
• It's very important to chill your dough for 45 minutes - 1 hour, as if you don't it will be too soft to roll and cut into shapes.
• You can add 100s and 1000s to the dough, mix through with a spatula before chilling the dough in the fridge.
• I like to use a metal egg flip to transfer my sugar cookies from the bench to my baking tray.
• You can freeze both the uncooked dough and the biscuits for up to one month.
