INGREDIENTS

  • Cookie Dough

    • 🧂 2 cups white sugar
    • 🧈 1 cup butter, softened
    • 15 ounces ricotta cheese
    • 🥚 2 large eggs
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 🌾 4 cups all-purpose flour
    • 2 tablespoons baking powder
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon salt

  • Glaze

    • 🧂 1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar
    • 🥛 3 tablespoons milk

STEPS

1

Gather all ingredients.

2

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

3

Beat together sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until combined.

4

Increase speed to high and beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.

5

Reduce speed to medium and beat in ricotta, eggs, and vanilla.

6

Reduce speed to low. Add flour, baking powder, and salt; beat until dough forms.

7

Drop level tablespoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

8

Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are very lightly golden and soft, about 15 minutes. Use a spatula to remove cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

9

When cookies are cool, make glaze: Stir together confectioners' sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth.

10

Use a small spoon or spatula to spread glaze on cookies; alternatively, dip each cookie into the bowl of glaze. Decorate as desired.
