**3-Ingredient Butter Cookies**
These cookies are pure buttery bliss! So simple, so delicious.
**Yields:** About 2-3 dozen cookies
**Prep time:** 10 minutes
**Bake time:** 12-15 minutes
**Ingredients:**
-
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened and slightly melted
-
* 1 cup powdered sugar
-
* 2 cups all-purpose flour
**Instructions:**
-
**Preheat & Prep:** Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
2. **Cream It Up:** In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. This might take a few minutes with an electric mixer, or a good arm workout with a whisk!
-
3. **Add the Flour:** Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined and a soft dough forms. Don’t overmix!
-
4. **Shape the Cookies:** Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). You can also press them gently with the bottom of a glass or a fork for a classic look.
-
5. **Bake to Perfection:** Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving a little space between them. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. They will still be soft when they come out of the oven – that’s key to their melt-in-your-mouth texture!
-
6. **Cool Down:** Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these delightful little bites of heaven with your coffee or tea! They’re perfect for sharing, but I won’t tell if you keep them all to yourself! #ButterCookies #EasyBaking #3IngredientRecipe #CookieLove #HomemadeGoodness
