Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 cups all purpose flour (regular or gluten-free measure-for-measure flour blend)
2 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter (room temperature (softened))
2 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature (softened))
4 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 tablespoons heavy cream
¼ tsp peppermint extract
Food Coloring (any color) (Americolor Gels Deep Pink used for the cookies in the photos)
½ cup crushed candy canes (about 6-7 full size candy canes)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a cookie sheet with a non-stick baking spray or line the sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In second large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar.
  • Add in the eggs, one at a time and mixing between each one.
  • Add the vanilla extract, almond extract, and sour cream and mix until just combined.
  • Slowly add the flour mixture while mixing on a low speed, continue adding and mixing until the dough is formed and the ingredients are well combined.NOTE: The mixture will be very wet, like a really thick cake batter.
  • Scoop a heaping tablespoon amount of dough, or use a medium sized cookie scoop, and place dough onto a cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Using the backside of a spoon, lightly dip the spoon into flour and flatten out the cookie.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the top of the cookie no longer appears wet.
  • Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and prepare the frosting once cooled.
  • In a large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, combine the powdered sugar and butter until it's mixed together. NOTE: it will not be creamy at this stage, just mixed.
  • Add in the peppermint extract, vanilla extract, corn syrup, salt and half of the heavy cream. Mix everything until well combined and the frosting has formed.If a thinner consistency is desired continue adding the heavy cream and mixing until the desired consistency has been reached.
  • Add a few drops of food coloring and mix until well incorporated.
  • Frost the cookies, top the cookies with crushed candy canes. Place on a cooling rack or piece of wax paper until frosting sets (15 to 20 minutes).

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer, cream sugar, butter, and shortening until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes on medium-high. Add egg, egg white and vanilla extract, mix until combined.
  • In a small mixing bowl whisk together cake flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cream of tartar and salt. With mixing speed on low, gradually add dry ingredients until no flour pockets remain. Place dough in an air-tight container and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, set aside.
  • Using a large cookie scoop (#20- approximately 3 1/2 tbsp.), create balls of dough, lightly roll on a floured surface so that it covers the ball of dough completely. Press each ball of dough flat with the bottom of a glass so that it is 1/2" thick and about 2 1/2 wide. Place 6 cookies onto each prepared baking sheet. Place in oven and bake for 9-11 minutes (the cookies will still look soft in the centers, do not over bake) or until the cookies become firm on the edges. Remove and allow to cool for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
