What
you need,
¼
cup + 3 tbsp. granulated sugar
4
tbsp. butter, at room temperature
2/3
cup all-purpose flour
¼
cup chocolate chip cookie dough spread, or nutella or jam would even be
fantastic!
Heat
the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a non-stick mat.
Place
the 3 tablespoons of sugar in a small bowl, set aside.
In
a medium bowl combine the sugar and butter, mix using an electric hand mixer
until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and mix again until just
combined. The dough may look a bit crumbly but it will come together.
Using
a tablespoon of dough, roll into a ball and then roll the ball into the sugar.
Place
the dough balls on the prepared sheet about 1 inch apart. They will spread out
a bit.
Bake
for 12-14 minutes until brown and crisp on the edges.
Let
the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a
cooling rack.
Let
the cookies cool completely before spreading on the filling.
Store
the cookies in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
