Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure an even bake and the perfect lightly golden finish on your cookies.
  2. Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the cornmeal and flour, stirring until the mixture forms a smooth dough.
  3. Shape the Cookies: Using a spoon or your hands, form the dough into small, evenly sized balls and place them onto an ungreased baking sheet, flattening them slightly to encourage even baking.
  4. Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges turn lightly golden brown.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely to preserve texture and flavor.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to one week to maintain freshness.
  • Feel free to add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness and enhance flavors.
  • You can sprinkle coarse sugar on top of cookies before baking for added crunch and sweetness.
  • Adjust baking time slightly if you prefer a chewier or crisper texture.
