Jello Sugar Cookies
Ingredients
- 1½ cups unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp cream of tartar
- 4 (3 oz) packages of jello*
- *Food coloring
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy. Blend in egg and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cream of tartar. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Sprinkle 8 tbsp of jello and drops of food coloring onto the dough and then knead the dough until combined.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls. If desired, roll the balls into the extra jello powder for a sweeter cookie. Place dough onto the baking sheet two inches apart. Flatten the dough with the bottom of the bowl to allow the cookies to cook evenly.
- Bake cookies for 8–10 minutes.
- Remove cookies from the pan and allow to cool on a wire rack.
