As Purim inched it’s way closer this year, I felt the dread coming on. I couldn’t imagine putting together shalach manos packages, getting dressed up, and getting into the holiday spirit. My heart just isn’t in it. So I went from one store to another, trying to come up with ideas for what to give out, but I always left empty handed. And then yesterday, I decided to put my heart into the cellophane and make yellow ribbon cookies. Cookies for the non-baker that doesn’t require cookie cutters, piping bag or decorating skills.

All I want for Purim is to BRING THEM HOME 🎗

Yellow Ribbon Cookies

1 cup (2 sticks) butter  1 cup granulated sugar 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla extract 3 cups all purpose flour 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 1 egg white
Yellow sugar

Method:

Place the butter and sugar in the mixing bowl and blend until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and continue to blend until incorporated. Add in the flour, baking powder and salt and mix at low speed until the dough starts to come together. Press the dough into a flat disk, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350°.

Roll the dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper until 1/4″ thick, trim the edges with a pizza cutter, bench scraper or knife to square off. Cut into strips and fold over to loop into a ribbon shape.

Brush with egg wash, sprinkle with sugar and bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned on the bottom.
