Ingredients

- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 50g unsalted butter, softened
- Circle-shaped cookie cutters
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and white lily juice to the butter mixture until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- Once chilled, remove the dough from the fridge and roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use the circle-shaped cookie cutters to cut out cookies and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve and enjoy!
