Melt In Your Mouth Sugar Cookies

With a slightly sweet cookie and buttercream-style frosting, these sugar cookies are the perfect treat to make for any holiday. What's great is that the cookies are light and airy, which means there's always room for more than one!

------------------------------
For the cookies:
- 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
For the frosting:
- 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
- 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
- 2-3 tbsp cream (or milk)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- red food coloring (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
For the cookies:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Cream the butter to soften. Add sugar and mix until light and fluffy. Mix in Greek yogurt, eggs, and vanilla.
- Add flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda to the mixer and completely incorporate. Transfer dough to an airtight container and chill for at least two hours. This makes it much easier to roll out.
- Once chilled, roll out the dough on a floured surface to 1/4-inch thick. Using a 2 1/2-inch round biscuit cutter or decorative cookie cutter, cut out cookies and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. When fully baked, they should not brown, but instead, puff and become set.
- Remove from the baking sheet and cool completely before frosting.
For the frosting:
- Cream butter to soften. Add cream and vanilla extract. Mix to combine. Add the powdered sugar. Mix in slowly and then increase speed to fully incorporate and create a smooth texture.
- Add food coloring, one drop at a time, until the desired color is achieved. Mix fully after each additional drop. Spread on cooled cookies with an offset spatula.

Love all your recipes 😋

[@deebeefromnc54]

Thank you for explaining info about ingredients along with several tips and tricks for the best results. Looking forward to trying this recipe. For something different this Valentine's Day, I am planning on using my new 'ugly' sweater cookie cutter and make them cute. LOL

[@keren.icehand]

The cookies are so cute💜👍

[@pennyblack1970]

Hi Caleb, thank you for sharing this recipe. You always make your recipes look easy, less intimidating. You always look like you are having loads of fun. Have a wonderful week.

[@laurenlowery5799]

Hi! I just found your channel and I love it, These cookies are great...so easy and pretty! Look forward to watching more videos. :) From Orange County, California.

[@brendarigdonsbrensden.8350]

Abfab 👍🏼❤️

[@deborahmower8539]

I hate rolling and cutting cookies. After it's chilled, would this dough work well scooped, then rolled into a ball and slightly flattened with a glass dipped in sugar?

[@natalieeubank4533]

Yep!!

[@KMcKee-qn6bo]

I was getting a nervous-twitch wondering if you were going to forget the vanilla. Don’t do that to me again.

[@debrahmarentette2371]

Love your videos BUT Kaleb 2 things..Why do you gave to have back ground music..your videos are great you don't need the music and it would be fun to see you do a Q&A video..

[@lindafraser7970]

Could I make a Big Cookie shaped as a heart. If so what temp & How long??

[@rachelstark2391]

Sprinkle over a tray... Not having a day? 🍷

[@wandabayers1482]

Where do I find the recipe for quantities?

[@WyseGuide]

The amounts are in the description of the video. You can also find them here: www.wyseguide.com/melt-in-your-mouth-sugar-cookies/

[@status-xk8kr]

The recipe calls for a cup of sugar but it didn't look like it was added into the mix? Hmmm, sugar cookies without sugar? LOL

[@harrygeorgie]

I’m a farm girl from Iowa, now living on the East Coast. I enjoy your videos and recipes. Reminds me of growing up and the love I have for home cooking. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Such joy!

[@pjflower1]

I’m going to make these with my grandson to give to his mom on Valentines Day. Thank you.

[@ILikeRagtime]

You mentioned that you make your own Vanilla. Would you mind sharing you process.....maybe make a video of it.

[@WyseGuide]

Hi Lolly! I do have a video of the process. You can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZuZZIOseryLl8U

[@ILikeRagtime]

@@WyseGuide Thanks so much! I ordered the beans tonight.

[@lynnmccreary6750]

Kaleb you always make the things you do look so easily doable. Love it!

[@leekit6099]

Whenever I cook along with Kaleb I finally get HaPpy comments from my family😁

[@lisamuir2091]

The scoop for the icing is genius!!!

[@auntiedee7447]

I put orange zest in my sugar cookies .Yummy 😜🌻

[@dorothyrackley3300]

Thank you Kaleb! I've been craving a sugar cookie that actually has good flavor and I can't wait to try this recipe!

[@spaghelle]

Thinking about making these with some lime flavor for my child’s lime green sports team. Do you think just adding some juice and zest into the buttercream would work?

[@maggiecbell]

Sugar cookies! My favorite!!

[@JustTryFoods]

Wow looks absolutely delicious. This recipe is looking absolutely amazing!!!.. I love the way you prepared, clear and easy to follow. thanks for this fabulous recipe. Big Like

[@hollyhock3945]

I had a wonderful sugar cookie recipe that got misplaced during a move. As best I can remember, it was pretty close to this except for using sour cream instead of the greek yogurt. So glad to see this and give it a try.

[@kathy5216]

Ours has sour cream too…another Iowa girl

[@hollyhock3945]

@@kathy5216 Iowa here too.

[@angieondriezek6537]

Mmm😋 those sugar cookies look amazing 😍. Thank you for sharing your recipe❤️.

[@jowalker4367]

Did I miss the sugar in this recipe?

[@status-xk8kr]

It looks like he forgot to add the cup of sugar that the recipe calls for? LOL

[@lindacollier3321]

I love watching your videos! You look like you have so much fun while you cook and I find myself laughing out loud watching…I’m a nearly 70 year old Nana and I’ve already printed off some of your recipes-when I can make a couple, I’ll let you know how they turn out! Thank you for giving me joy while learning something new!

[@araceliadams34]

Your cookies look great. Love your energy.

[@messybunsoap6712]

Doesn't anyone ever look in the description box?? Honestly, commenting about the quantities & recipe before you've even tried to look 😩 thanks Caleb for sharing your experiences with us 💖

[@douglaswild3852]

These look delicious and I love that your decorating/frosting is cute and fun but doesn’t take multiple frosting tips and hours to do!! The use of the cookie scoop for frosting is genius!! I’ll be using that at Christmas time too! All your recipes look delicious and the way you precent them make them all seem doable!!! I just discovered your channel and love your personality, presentation and relatable cooking style.Keep up the good work!! 👍🏼

[@rachelstark2391]

Not for nothing, but you have an entire counter/island...why are you working in that tiny corner (Not to mention over 2 canisters)? My entire kitchen is that tiny corner. Just saying... Cheers 🍷

[@ElHuertodeAzul]

I'll have to try that Greek yogurt tip! Those are some beautiful sugar cookies

[@TownGirl04]

I made two batches, today. I took first decorated one lol. Thanks.

[@pammartin9876]

Hi! Love watching you but I wish you would mention how much of each ingredient you use. The cookies were beautiful!

[@WyseGuide]

Hi Pam! The amounts are all in the description of the video. Or you can find the printable version on my site here: www.wyseguide.com/melt-in-your-mouth-sugar-cookies/

[@claireburling8547]

I can pretty much figure out the amounts as long as that was a 1cup measure you were holding, and 1/2tsp. But why not let us know 🔮as you go!? Also if I'm using Vanilla greek yogurt, should I skip the van.extract OR use less? And how much would be less ? You seem very charming n cookies look so delicious, please list the recipe. We'll know how to put it together. Also...oven temp. and bake time? (350°/10-12 min.?) Maybe 375°? 💝

[@burnindaylighthomestead2977]

You've inspired me. Thank you so much .

[@maryschmidt7035]

I am going to make these...look so good, thank you!

[@pamelacasey1699]

Looks like a sugar cookie I am looking for! Thank you!

[@BigMoneysLife]

Kaleb, if you put the cookies in the fridge for about 20 minutes or so before you bake them, the cookies will hold their shape while they bake. A tip I learned from Rosanna Pansino here on youtube.

[@WyseGuide]

Mike - great tip!

[@laurakammarmeyer1871]

What's the best way to store these...do they freeze well?

[@debwerner8368]

what kind of butter do you use?

[@annetteswanson5514]

LOL.. .. .. eat them all!! Enjoy!!

[@amberluttrelll8359]

Definitely making these

[@dianebaker5243]

[@christinetilton4562]

You talked me into it. I’m baking cookies tomorrow. Thanks for the recipe.

[@wanderertimetogo348]

@Caleb. Do you use salted or unsalted butter or does it matter? Thank you.
