Sugar Cookie Blossoms Recipe
Description
This Sugar Cookie Blossoms Recipe starts with creaming butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla for a smooth base. Dry ingredients including flour, baking soda, and salt are stirred in to form a dough that is shaped into 1.5-inch balls, then rolled in additional sugar before baking. The sugar coating adds a slight crisp surface texture.
The cookies bake at 375°F for 7-9 minutes, until just set but not browned. Immediately after removal from the oven, a mint meltaway candy is pressed into the center of each cookie. As the cookies cool, the candy softens slightly, creating a soft, flavorful center that complements the sweet dough.
These cookies offer a combination of soft, tender texture with a touch of minty sweetness, making them pleasant served at gatherings or holidays. The recipe yields 24-36 cookies depending on the size of the dough balls.
