- 250 g Icing Sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- Food Colouring (optional)

Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Tray: Preheat the oven to 175°C and line a baking tray with baking paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix Sugars and Butter: Whisk together brown sugar, sugar, and melted butter until smooth and well combined for a rich base.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract into the sugar-butter mixture and whisk thoroughly to combine.
- Sift and Fold Dry Ingredients: Sift the plain flour, cornflour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, then fold into the wet mixture gently until combined into a dough.
- Shape and Chill Dough: Roll the dough into 50g balls, place them spaced on the prepared baking tray, and refrigerate for 1 hour to help control spread during baking.
- Bake Cookies: Bake refrigerated dough balls at 175°C for 12 minutes; allow cookies to cool completely on the tray before decorating.
- Prepare Cream Cheese Frosting: Whisk together softened butter, cream cheese, and icing sugar for about 5 minutes until fluffy, then add vanilla extract and whisk again.
- Add Colour and Decorate: Mix in food colouring if desired. Pipe frosting onto cooled cookies and finish with sprinkles for decoration.
Notes
- Chilling the dough balls before baking is essential to maintain cookie shape and texture.
- Ensure cookies are fully cooled before adding frosting to prevent melting.
- Adjust baking time slightly if your oven runs hot or cool; watch for golden edges.
- Food colouring and sprinkles are optional but enhance the cookie’s visual appeal.
- Store frosted cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
