Sometimes my blog platform gets confused. Sometimes I get confused. Sometimes I post things and then realize that I forgot a key detail, or made a glaring typo. Sometimes I edit my posted documents and my blogging platform doesn't like it. Sometimes, depsite my best efforts, things just don't go right.
I swear on the last post I put in the recipe for the brown sugar cookies. In fact, I looked back and saved it to my computer with a recipe! But alas, it's not there. So here it is, because, frankly who doesn't want to eat batches and batches of cookies?
Brown Sugar Cookies
makes 2 1/2 dozen cookies (unless you eat the dough because, ummm, hello? It's right there!)
from Joy the Baker
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/2 sticks (6 ounces) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and ginger. Set aside.
Place butter and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric stand mixer. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat on medium speed for one minute more.
Add the dry ingredients, all at once, to the butter and sugar mixture. Beat on low speed until the dough begins to come together and the flour disappears. Stop the mixer and finish incorporating the ingredients with a spatula. Once all the flour is thoroughly mixed in, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Place a rack in the center and upper third of the over and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Dollop tablespoons size balls of dough onto the baking sheet. Bake cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly browned around the edges. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies will last, in an airtight container at room temperature, for up to 5 days. <-- highly unlikely occurrence
