Step-by-Step Instructions for Butterbeer Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in one egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients.
- Scoop 7-8 balls of dough onto the baking sheet, flattening to about ¾ inch thick.
- Bake for 12-13 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers look set.
- Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
- Prepare the frosting by beating together butter, powdered sugar, heavy cream, and butterscotch syrup.
- Frost cookies and decorate with sprinkles once fully cooled.
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Freeze unbaked dough for up to 2 months.
