Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Chocolate chips or candy eyes
- Mini chocolate chips for nose
- Pink candy melts for ears
- Decorative colored icing
Instructions:
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt
In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms
Divide the dough into two portions, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 1 hour
Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Roll out one portion of the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness
Using teddy bear-shaped cookie cutters, cut out bear shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely
Melt the pink candy melts in the microwave according to package instructions
Dip the top sides of the cookies into the melted candy to create teddy bear ears
Place on parchment paper to set
Once the candy ears are set, use a bit of melted candy to attach chocolate chips or candy eyes and a mini chocolate chip for the nose
Use decorative colored icing to draw on mouths, bowties, and any other features you'd like
Let the icing set before serving or packaging the cookies
Enjoy these incredibly cute teddy-bear cookies!
