Shark-themed Cookies

You will need:

  • all-purpose flour2 cups all-purpose flour
  • baking powder1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • salt1/4 teaspoon salt
  • unsalted butter1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • granulated sugar1 cup granulated sugar
  • egg1 large egg
  • vanilla extract1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • blue and white icingBlue and white icing
  • shark-shaped cookie cutterShark-shaped cookie cutter

Instructions

  1. First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. This prevents the cookies from sticking to the sheet.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. These dry ingredients will give your cookies their structure.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together 1 cup of softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This process helps to incorporate air into the dough, making your cookies tender.
  4. Next, beat in one large egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into your butter and sugar mixture. These ingredients add moisture and flavor to your cookies.
  5. Gradually add your dry ingredient mixture to your wet ingredient mixture, mixing just until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to tough cookies.
  6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out your dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Using your shark-shaped cookie cutter, cut out your cookies and place them on your prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake your cookies in your preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are lightly golden. This baking time ensures your cookies will be perfectly baked - crispy on the edges and soft in the middle.
  8. Once your cookies have cooled completely, you can decorate them with blue and white icing to resemble sharks. Have fun with this step and get creative!

Notes

Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. You can also freeze the baked cookies for up to 3 months.
