Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough:
  • 1 cup butter softened
  • ½ cup shortening
  • 1½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp almond extract
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cornstarch
  • 2 tsp baking powder
For the Topping:
  • Your favorite vanilla or cream cheese frosting
  • Fresh strawberries sliced
  • Fresh blueberries

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Hand or stand mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Cooling rack
  • Spatula or butter knife (for spreading frosting)
  • Cookie cutter (optional, for perfect rounds)

Method
 

Step 1: Make the Cookie Dough
  1. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, shortening, and sugar until light and fluffy. I mix for about 2–3 minutes on medium speed.
  2. Add in the egg, vanilla, and almond extract. Mix until fully combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms — it should hold together but not be sticky.
Step 2: Shape and Bake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Scoop out dough (about 2 tablespoons per cookie) and flatten into small round discs — think mini pizza bases.
  3. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then move to a rack.
Step 3: Frost and Decorate
  1. Once completely cool, spread a generous amount of frosting on each cookie.
  2. Top with sliced strawberries and blueberries. Try to arrange them in a cute little pattern — like stripes, stars, or just a mix!
