Ted L’s Biscuit Cookies

Serves: 10

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted Irish butter, softened
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp. granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 tsp. Kosher salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Place the oven rack in the middle position.
  2. Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper. Leave a 1-inch overhang on each side of the pan. Set to the side.
  3. In a large bowl, mix, using a hand mixer, butter, sugar, vanilla, and kosher salt on low speed until ingredients begin to blend. Once combined, increase to medium speed for 2 minutes, ensuring the dough is smooth and creamy.
  4. Slowly add the flour while mixing on low power until the dough is moist and crumbly.
  5. Place dough in a pan and spread evenly. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and lightly press with a spatula to flatten.
  6. Using a fork, gently pierce the entire surface of the dough so that they are evenly spaced. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  7. Remove from the freezer and remove plastic wrap. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the surface and edges are golden brown.
  8. Take the cookies out of the pan using the paper overhang. Place on a wire rack. Cool for 5 minutes. While still warm, Sprinkle 1 tbsp. of granulated sugar evenly over the surface of the dough.
  9. Use a knife to cut the cookies into long rectangles to fit the iconic pink pastry box.
