Easy No Spread Sugar Cookies

[@sokucm7309]

For any confusion, his recent Christmas sugar cookie video from 4 months ago doesn’t include cornstarch. Instead it uses baking soda. I highly recommend this recipe. It gave a nice shape and rise on my cookies! I’ve followed this recipe many times. Hope this helps!

I literally just made these for Hanukkah, and they came out AMAZING! Everyone loved them!!! Crispy on the edges, soft and slightly chewy in the middle. Perfect golden color. I used a magen of David cookie cutter and a Ginger bread man for fun. They most definitely kept their shape and check out his royal icing video. We had a cookie decorating party. Depending on the size of your cookie cutter, I had big and small so we easily made a little more than two dozen w/one batch. I used 1/3 Cup of corn starch like he had adjusted and mentioned in the video and they did in all honesty come out fantastic. I put it flat in the fridge for 30 minutes, because I was working on the second batch of dough. The fist batch i used Pure Vanilla extract. On the second batch I added a pinch of caramel extract. What's great is that you can change the flavor so easily. Bravo to this recipe 👏🏆

Yes you're right, it does seem easier. However, easier often doesn't mean better and for cups here's why: you may have 10, 15 or even 20 grams difference with the recipe because people don't fill their cups the same. And with cups, it's so hard to divide recipes! Stick with your scale and grams, because you can see more and more baking youtubers or baking bloggers using grams. I think they feel they have to to be reliable to people. :)

I love how you give two different kinds of measurements so we don’t have to figure it out by ourself

Funny how you say "IF YOU LOVE THIS VIDEO" like it's nothing.. YOU KIDDING? I"M ADDICTED!!!! I just love how you explain "how" and "why" we should do this and that, so precise but straight to the point. Please make more videos. I think they should make you a judge at Sugar Rush.

My family has been tight on money lately so I've been looking for basic recipe deserts and this one is amazing!! I didn't have corn starch but was able to substitute it with corn flour and they still didn't spread and turned out very nice!!

[@tasnemabegum7485]

Corn starch and corn flour is the same thing x
