Ingredients
To make diamond cookies, you'll need the following ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
Now that you have all your ingredients, it's time to start making your diamond cookies! Follow these step-by-step instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
If desired, fold in the rainbow sprinkles.
Divide the dough into four equal pieces and shape each piece into a flat rectangle.
Wrap each rectangle in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll each rectangle out into a thin layer, about 1/8 inch thick.
Use a diamond-shaped cookie cutter to cut out cookies from the dough.
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each cookie.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
