Directions
- Beat the room temperature butter, sugar, and cream cheese together in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer. The mixture should be light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and the egg and mix until combined. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the side of the bowl so all the butter mixture is combined.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream of tarter, baking powder, salt, and all-purpose einkorn flour. Mix until combined.
- With the mixer on low, slowly combine the flour mixture with the butter mixture. Scrape the sides of the bowl down as needed. Do not over-mix
- Chill the dough in the fridge for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Sprinkle a little flour on your countertop and roll out half of the dough. Try to get the dough as even as possible. The dough should be about 1/3- 1/2" thick. Use any shape of cookie cutter to cut the dough
- Lay the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet about 1" apart.
- Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack.
How to Make the Sugar Cookie Glaze
- Combine the powdered sugar, milk, Karo syrup and your favorite extract in a medium mixing bowl. Use a wire whisk to combine all the ingredients. There shouldn't be any lumps. Add an additional tablespoon of milk to the glaze if needed. The glaze should be smooth and shiny.
- It works great to add the glaze to a piping bag or a condiment bottle with a small opening to glaze the cookies. You can do an outline of a shape and then fill in the rest of the glaze or you can drip the glaze over the edges for a fully glazed cookie.
