Ingredients
 

SUGAR COOKIE DOUGH

  • 14.65 oz (415 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp (6 g) baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp (0.75 tsp) sea salt
  • 16 tbsp (225 g) butter (Very Cold | Cut into Squares)
  • 1 cup (200 g) sugar
  • 1 tsp (5 g) vanilla bean paste
  • 1 egg

VANILLA ICING

  • 3 cups (360 g) powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp (4 g) vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp (20 g) corn syrup
  • 4 Tbsp (60 g) Bottled Water
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5 g) sea salt
  • Food Colorant (Red and Blue)

Instructions
 

SUGAR COOKIE DOUGH PREPARATION

  • First, in your mixing bowlwhisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder and sea salt. Set aside.
    • Save
  • Then, in the bowl of your stand mixer, with the paddle attachment on, cream the butter together with the sugar and vanilla bean paste. Start on your lowest setting and increase the speed until you reach the desired consistency. About 5 minutes.
    • Save
  • Add the egg. Continue mixing on medium speed until combined. IMPORTANT: Do not over mix.
    • Save
  • Bring back the speed to the Lowest setting and gradually add the dry ingredients. Your dough is ready once it does not stick to the sides of your bowl (about 2 minutes).

REFRIGERATE

  • Shape your dough into a thick square and wrap it completely with a plastic film. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes. This will allow the butter to cool down.
    • Save

ROLL (METHOD 1 & 2)

  • METHOD 1: Take your dough out of the refrigerator and roll it into a large square directly on your Bonmat. I like my cookies a 1/4" | 5mm thick. Return the dough to the fridge, until it is not soft to the touch.
  • METHOD 2: Place the dough your Bonmat with your Medium Perforated Baking Sheet underneath the Bonmat. If you have an extra Bonmat, set it under the baking sheet so it doesn’t slide. Roll out the dough across long portion of Perforated Baking Sheet, which will roll your dough out at the specific height needed (about 1/8″ thick). Then, refrigerate until the dough is not soft to the touch.

WHEN READY TO BAKE!

  • Place your Large bonMAT™ on the top of your Large Perforated Baking Sheet. Set Aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
  • Take your dough out of the refrigerator. Cut your cookie dough using your star shaped dough cutters. Place them directly onto your bonMAT™ well apart. You will need about 3 trays.
    • Save
  • Bake for 10 minutes at 350F/180C, until just beginning to turn golden around the edges. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cookies from 8 minutes). NOTE: They will be soft out of the oven, that's normal as they will harden when they cool down.
    • Save
  • Once your Sugar Cookies are out of the oven, let them completely cool down as is on your Baking Sheet and get your vanilla icing ready. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!

VANILLA ICING

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla extract, corn syrup and sea salt. Then, add 4 Tablespoons of spring water. Mix until combined. IMPORTANT: Add 1/2 tsp of water at a time to make it less thick. Add 1/2 tsp of powdered Sugar at a time to make it less runny.
  • Divide your icing into 3 bowls. Set one on the side (white), then combine the blue food colorant with the second one ; and the red food colorant with the third one.
  • Gently dip each star cookie into your Vanilla Icing. NOTE: If adding sprinkles do it right away as the icing hardens very quickly.
  • Let them dry completely for an hour or so. Then, slide them onto a serving plate. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
  • N.B. Storage is best when placed in a metal box.
