Tender girl scout cookie recipe with customizable flavors.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 1.5 cups white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 cup white sugar for decoration
Instructions:
  • In a big bowl, mix the shortening and 1 1/2 cups of sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla. Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in and stir until well combined. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat your oven to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Shape the dough into charming 1-inch balls, then gently coat them in the sweet sugar mix. Arrange the cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets to give them room to shine.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 9 minutes until just barely golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
