Do you love those cookies from Walmart or Target that are just so good? There soft, there amazing, they are just awesome. These cookies are called Lofthouse cookies. Here is a picture of one:
The frosting and cookie? SO yummy. That's why I tried a copycat recipe for these things one time. They were SO good. That is why today I am going to share the recipe with you.
What You Need:
6 ounces powdered sugar
4 ounces butter
4 ounces unsalted butter softened
1 large egg room temperature
13 ounces cake flour
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon almond extract
¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions:
In the bowl of your stand mixer with the whisk attachment (or you can use a hand mixer) cream together the butter, margarine and powdered sugar until light and fluffy
Add in your vanilla, almond extract and egg and mix on medium until combined
Add in your baking soda, baking powder, salt, cream of tartar and cornstarch and mix until combined
Switch to the paddle attachment and mix in your cake flour just until combined. Do not overmix (or you can do this by hand)
Scoop your batter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet with a medium-sized cookie scoop (or you can use a spoon)
Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 2 hours (or up to 24 hours)
Preheat your oven to 375ºF
Roll the chilled dough into balls and then flatten with your fingers into cookies that are about ½" thick and 3" wide. Arrange on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake your cookies for 8-9 minutes or just until the sheen disappears from the top of the cookie. Place onto a cooling rack to cool fully before frosting with buttercream and finishing with sprinkles
