Instructions
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the butter and green food coloring together on medium speed until the butter has turned green, about 1 minute.
- Add the sugar, egg yolk, and vanilla. Mix to combine.
- Add the flour and baking powder. Mix just until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Roll out the dough to ¼-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface.
- Cut out 2-inch circles using a circle cookie cutter or similarly sized glass/cup. Place the cookie dough circles onto the prepared baking sheets (6 cookies per sheet) and freeze for 1 hour.
- While the dough freezes, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Remove the cookies from the freezer and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately place a candy heart into the center of each one. Press the candy heart gently into the cookie until it sticks.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet until they are room temperature.
Notes
- Storage: Store Grinch sugar cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
