Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all purpose flour, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, and baking powder. Stir well to mix the dry ingredients evenly.
- In a separate bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture. Mix thoroughly until fully combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring continuously until a smooth dough forms.
- Roll the dough into small balls about 2 cm in diameter and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 3 cm apart.
- Flatten each ball gently with the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass to form cookie shapes.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips
- Use room temperature butter for easier mixing.
- Do not overbake to keep cookies soft inside.
- Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Serving Suggestions
- hot spiced tea
- mulled wine
- coffee
- vanilla ice cream
Enjoy these warm, spiced advent cookies fresh from the oven with your favorite holiday drink for a cozy festive treat.
