Kentucky Butter Cake Cookies

 


2½ cups flour

1 cup sugar

½ cup powdered sugar

1 cup butter, softened

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp butter extract

1 tsp baking powder

¼ tsp salt


Glaze

½ cup butter

¾ cup sugar

¼ cup water

1 tsp vanilla


 

Preheat oven to 350F and line baking sheets.

Cream butter and sugars until fluffy and light. Blend in eggs and extracts thoroughly. Gently incorporate sifted dry ingredients, mixing until just combined, maintaining a smooth, cohesive dough without overmixing.

Scoop 1 Tbsp cookie balls. Delicately flatten each ball using fingertips or a smooth utensil to create uniform discs.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, watching for subtle golden edges. Allow brief resting on baking trays.

 Melt butter in a small saucepan. Integrate sugar and water, stirring until completely dissolved. Remove from heat and blend in vanilla.

While cookies are still warm, generously brush or drizzle glaze across surfaces. Cool cookies completely.
