Butternut Cookies Recipe<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong><\/h4>\n
    \n
  • 1 1\/2 cups (180g) all-purpose flour<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 teaspoon baking soda<\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened<\/li>\n
  • 3\/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar<\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 cup (50g) brown sugar, packed<\/li>\n
  • 1 large egg<\/li>\n
  • 1 tablespoon butternut flavoring (or butternut extract)<\/li>\n
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup (90g) chopped butternut (optional, for texture and flavor)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Instructions:<\/strong><\/h4>\n
      \n
    1. Preheat oven<\/strong>:\n
        \n
      • Preheat your oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
      • Dry ingredients<\/strong>:\n
          \n
        • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
        • Cream butter and sugars<\/strong>:\n
            \n
          • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer or a whisk. Beat until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
          • Add egg and flavorings<\/strong>:\n
              \n
            • Beat in the egg until well combined.<\/li>\n
            • Add the butternut flavoring (or butternut extract) and vanilla extract, and mix to combine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
            • Combine wet and dry ingredients<\/strong>:\n
                \n
              • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cookies tough.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
              • Add optional butternut pieces<\/strong>:\n
                  \n
                • If you want to add texture and a richer butternut flavor, gently fold in the chopped butternut or other nuts of your choice (such as pecans or walnuts).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
                • Scoop and shape cookies<\/strong>:\n
                    \n
                  • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.<\/li>\n
                  • Gently press down on the tops of the cookies with a fork or your fingers to slightly flatten them (they won\u2019t spread much during baking).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
                  • Bake<\/strong>:\n
                      \n
                    • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should look soft but set.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
                    • Cool<\/strong>:\n
                        \n
                      • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        Tips:<\/strong><\/h4>\n
                          \n
                        • Butternut Flavoring<\/strong>: If you can\u2019t find butternut flavoring, you can substitute with butter flavoring or a combination of vanilla and a little almond extract.<\/li>\n
                        • Texture<\/strong>: For a chewier texture, you can add a tablespoon of cornstarch to the flour mixture.<\/li>\n
                        • Storage<\/strong>: Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze them for up to a month.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
