Spoon Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
• Place the sugar cookie dough sheet on a lightly floured surface.
• Sprinkle the flour over the dough and knead together.
• Roll out the dough to a ¼-inch (6-mm) thick square.
• Top with sprinkles and lightly roll out the dough again so the sprinkles become submerged in the dough.
• Place a spoon on top of the dough and trace its shape with a paring knife. Reroll the dough as needed to cut out 8 spoons.
• Arrange spoons upside-down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Lightly grease with nonstick cooking spray.
• Place each cookie spoon cutout on top of a spoon. Lightly press down to mold.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cookie dough is light brown.
• Cool for 10 minutes before carefully removing the cookies from the spoons.
• Microwave the milk chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a glass measuring cup or bowl in 30-second intervals, until the chips are completely melted.
• Dip each cookie spoon in chocolate and let dry on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
• Serve with ice cream, if desired.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• Melt the butter in a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Continue to cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter browns lightly and smells slightly nutty, about 15 minutes. Transfer the butter to a medium bowl -- be sure to get all the tasty brown bits -- and cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in another medium bowl.
• Whisk the egg yolk, sugar and vanilla into the cooled browned butter.
• Stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture to make a uniform but crumbly dough that looks like wet sand.
• Scoop out dough with a small teaspoon (the kind you set the table with, not the ones you measure with). Rock spoon gently back and forth against the side of the bowl, packing the dough into the spoon, then scrape/slide the spoon against the inside of the bowl to make spoon-shaped cookies. Trim excess dough with your fingers and slide out onto the prepared pans, preserving their shape. (Try to make sure you form an even number of cookies, since these sandwich together.)
• Bake cookies until just browned, about 12 to 15 minutes. Cool almost completely on the baking sheets, and then transfer cookies to a rack to cool.
• When cool, spread 1/2 teaspoon jam on the flat side of a cookie, and then sandwich together with a second cookie. Repeat until all cookies have met their match. Lightly dust the cookies with the confectioners' sugar. Serve.
• Busy baker's tips: The dough can be prepared several hours ahead and stored at room temperature. Freeze baked cookie halves wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, followed by aluminum foil for up to 2 weeks. When ready to serve, defrost at room temperature and assemble as desired. Store sandwiches in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Do not store with crisp cookies, as moisture from the jam will soften the texture of other crisp cookies.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Cream the butter or margarine with the white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla and eggs and mix well. Stir in the baking powder and flour. Drop dough by rounded spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets.
• In a small bowl beat milk into the confectioners' sugar a tablespoon at a time until it is of a drizzling consistency.
• Bake cookies at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 10 minutes.
• Let cookies cool then drizzle with confectioners' sugar and milk glaze then sprinkle with candy sprinkles.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Cream the butter in a large bowl with a wooden spoon or in a stand mixer until it is soft. Add the sugar and keep beating until the mixture is light and fluffy. Sift in the flour and add the optional ingredients, if you're using them. Bring the mixture together with your hands in a figure-of-eight motion until it forms a dough. You can freeze the dough at this point.
• Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls and place them slightly apart from each other on a baking sheet (you don't need to butter or line it). Flatten the balls a little with the palm of your hand and bake them in the oven for around 10-12 mins until they are golden brown and slightly firm on top. Leave the cookies on a cooling rack for around 15 mins before serving.
