Caramel Macchiato Sugar Cookies

Caramel Macchiato Sugar Cookies

I'd like to introduce you all to my newest member of the no chill, no spread sugar cookies- Caramel Macchiato! These are absolutely divine! You could flavor your royal icing in some really delicious ways to pair with these. I ended up going with Caramel flavored royal icing to enhance the caramel flavor. I hope you all enjoy these as much as I do!

Course: Treats
Servings: 18 cookies depending on size and thickness
Calories: 219kcal

Equipment

  • Preforated Baking Mats
  • Stand Mixer
  • Food Scale
  • Oven Thermometer
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Baking Pans
  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

  • 226 grams unsalted butter cool, not room temperature
  • 220 grams granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg cold
  • 1/2 tablespoon Watkins Pure Coffee Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Amoretti Salted Caramel Artisan Flavor
  • 384 grams all purpose flour
Metric - US Customary

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. I always use an oven thermometer. Ovens can, and usually do, heat at a different temperature than what shows on your oven screen. For the best results in any of your baking, I highly recommend using an oven thermometer. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, add your cool unsalted butter, sugar, and salt. The temperature of the butter and the fact that you use unsalted butter matter here.
  • Turn your mixer on the lowest speed available. We don't want to incorporate any air into the dough. Air will cause spreading! We only want to mix this until it starts to incorporate.
  • Add the cold egg, Watkins Pure Coffee Extract, and the Amoretti Salted Caramel Artisan Flavor. Again, the temperature of the egg matters. You want to use it cold.
  • Again, turn your mixer on to the lowest speed and mix just until the egg and flavor have incorporated into the butter and sugar. It will still look sort of lumpy or curdled. This is ok. You just don't want any big chunks of butter.
  • Add the flour to your butter, sugar, egg mixture.
  • This is what it looks like half-way through mixing. Keep going!
  • Once more, turn your mixer on to the lowest setting, and mix until it all comes together. It will start to clean the sides of the bowl and gather onto the paddle. It doesn't take long, so don't walk away from it. Turn the mixer off and touch the dough. If you can leave an imprint with your finger without the dough sticking to it, its ready. I live in a humid area, but the amount of flour in the recipe is perfect 9 1/2 times out of 10.
  • I use a piece of parchment paper very lightly sprinkled with flour to roll my dough. I also use two pieces of 3/8 inch thick wood as my guide to roll my dough between. This will give you perfectly even cookies every time!
  • Take your dough, place it onto the very lightly floured parchment paper, and very lightly sprinkle some flour over the dough.
  • Roll your dough out.
  • Place your cut dough onto your parchment paper covered cookies sheets.
  • Bake in your preheated oven for 10-14 minutes depending on the size of your cookies. I never have to bake over 14 minutes, even for my largest cutter (5 1/2 inches). You don't want your cookies to brown.
  • After removing from the oven, let the cookies set on the cookie sheet for 2-4 minutes.
  • If you happen to have any small bumps, you can just use your fingertip while the cookies are still warm and very lightly smooth them down.
  • Move them onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • I usually let my cookies sit in a tupperware container on a paper towel overnight before decorating. This will help grab any extra butter so you don't get that dreaded "butter bleed" after you've spent 2 days decorating them!
  • Enjoy your delicious, thick, soft (but sturdy), sugar cookies! Feel free to let your imagination run wild with the flavor possibilities!

    I got the amoretti coffee extract, could that be used instead of the other coffee one you have listed in the recipe?

      Hi Erika! You can use any brand of the coffee extract you prefer. I will say that you may want to use a bit less of the Amoretti as theirs are super concentrated 🙂

    Maybe this is a silly question, but when you sit yours on a paper towel in a Tupperware overnight to prevent butter bleed, do you seal the Tupperware lid on it? Or does that trap moisture? Thank you. ~~Sarah

      Hi Sarah! That’s not a silly question at all! I don’t seal it. The containers I use don’t have airtight lids. I do close them all the way, but like I said, they’re not airtight. For an airtight container, just leave it cracked a bit and that will work. 🙂
