Corn Meal Cookies

Ingredients

  • ◦1 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ◦1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • ◦1/2 teaspoon salt
  • ◦3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ◦3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • ◦1 large egg
  • ◦1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1


Preheat oven to 350°. Line baking pans with parchment paper or silicone liners.

Whisk together flour, cornmeal, and salt. Set aside.

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, and mix well.

Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually add flour mixture. Mix just until combined.

Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto prepared pans, placing cookies about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly. Bake* 14-16 minutes, or until edges are golden. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes


*I prefer to bake cookies one pan at a time. If you're baking 2 pans at a time, be sure to rotate the pans halfway through baking.
