Recipe #6: Sour Cream Cookies from Sugar Spun Run

Description

These old-fashioned sour cream cookies are delightfully soft and topped with a simple frosting, perfect for a quick, satisfying treat.

Ingredient Summary

This recipe makes soft sour cream cookies frosted with a sweet, creamy topping.

The cookie dough consists of unsalted butter, granulated sugar, sour cream, an egg, vanilla extract, and optional lemon zest, combined with all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

The frosting is made from unsalted butter, powdered sugar, sour cream, vanilla extract, and optional food coloring and sprinkles for decoration.

Recipe Summary

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment. Cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then mix in sour cream, egg, vanilla, and lemon zest until smooth.

Whisk dry ingredients in another bowl and gradually incorporate them into the wet mixture to form a dough. Scoop the dough onto the baking sheet, spacing cookies apart, and bake for 10-11 minutes.

After baking, optionally flatten the cookies slightly for easier frosting. For the frosting, beat butter and powdered sugar, then add sour cream, vanilla, and salt until creamy.

Add food coloring if desired. Once cookies are cool, frost them and add sprinkles.
