Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened Jell-O mix (any flavor)
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, blending until fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, Jell-O mix, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Step 5
If the dough feels too stiff, add the milk, one teaspoon at a time, until it reaches a consistency that is easy to press through a cookie press.
Step 6
Spoon the dough into a cookie press fitted with the disc of your choice. Press the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are just starting to turn light golden brown. Be careful not to overbake.
Step 8
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
