Sugar Cookie Recipe Without Eggs: Melts In Your Mouth

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed for 3–5 minutes until pale and fluffy.
2. Mix in the vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons of milk until combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture on low speed. Add the final tablespoon of milk if the dough is too crumbly to hold together.
5. Form the dough into a cohesive ball, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour to prevent spreading.
6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and roll the dough to ¼-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface.
7. Cut into shapes using cookie cutters and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced 1 inch apart.
8. Bake for 9–11 minutes until edges are barely set and tops look matte. Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
9. Whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for the glaze and apply once cookies are completely cool.
