Servings: 6 Cookies
Ingredients
Crumbl Cookie:
- ½ cup of butter softened
- ¼ cup of vegetable oil
- ¾ cup of granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 ¼ teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon of baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon of baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon of cream of tartar
Cookie Icing:
- ½ cup of butter softened
- 2 cups of powdered sugar
- 2 to 3 tablespoons of heavy cream or milk as needed
- ½ teaspoon of almond extract
- Pink food coloring as desired
Instructions
- Preparation of Baking Environment: Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and set aside.
- Combining Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and cream of tartar. This mixture should be set aside until required.
- Creaming of Butter and Sugars: In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the softened butter with the granulated and powdered sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy. This process incorporates air into the mixture, ensuring a lighter cookie.
- Integration of Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture, ensuring each component is thoroughly integrated before adding the next.
- Incorporation of Dry Ingredients: Slowly add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the dough, which can result in tough cookies.
- Forming the Cookies: Utilize a ¼ measuring cup to scoop the dough, then roll it into balls. Place these balls onto the prepared cookie sheet and gently flatten each one to form a disc shape.
- Baking: Position the cookies on the baking sheet, ensuring ample space between them, and bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 12 minutes. The cookies should be lightly golden and set when done.
- Cooling: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack to ensure they set properly before frosting.
- Preparation of Icing: For the frosting, cream the softened butter with the powdered sugar in a mixing bowl until smooth. Gradually add heavy cream or milk and continue mixing until you achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency. Adjust the consistency with additional cream or powdered sugar as needed.
- Coloring the Icing: Add a few drops of pink food coloring to the icing, adjusting the amount to achieve the desired shade.
- Application of Icing: Once the cookies have completely cooled, apply a generous amount of the pink frosting to each cookie.
- Chilling: After frosting, place the cookies in the refrigerator to chill, which helps set the icing and enhances the flavors.
