THE COOKIE TIN / BROWN SUGAR & VANILLA

Chill the dough before you reach for the cutter.

Two flat discs chill more evenly and are easier to roll than one large ball. Work with one disc at a time so the other stays cold.

Instructions

  1. A hand mixer over a bowl of creamed butter and brown sugar

    Cream the butter and sugars

    Beat the softened cannabutter until fluffy. Add both sugars gradually and beat until evenly combined, then mix in the egg and vanilla.

    Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture just until the dough comes together.

  2. Two wrapped discs of cookie dough on a tray

    Wrap and chill overnight

    Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disc, wrap both discs and refrigerate overnight.

  3. Fluted cutter and rolling pin next to rolled cookie dough and cut rounds

    Roll and cut the chilled dough

    Heat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment. Roll one disc on a lightly floured surface to about ¼ inch thick. Cut the shapes and place them at least 1 inch apart on the sheet.

  4. Golden cutout cookies cooling on parchment

    Bake a test cookie, then the batch

    Bake one cookie first to check spread and doneness. Start checking at 10 minutes and bake until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set. Repeat with the remaining dough and let the cookies cool.

KITCHEN NOTES

Keep the cutouts cold.

Roll one disc at a time
If the dough sticks or softens, return it to the refrigerator before cutting more.
Watch the edges
Check the first cookie at 10 minutes. Cutter size, thickness and oven temperature affect how quickly it bakes.

Storage and portions

The dough contains raw flour and egg. Bake it before tasting. Cool and label the finished cookies, then store them in a locked container away from children and pets.
