Cookies
16 tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tsp vanilla paste, or extract
2 tbsp Maximum Pie spice
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 tsp kosher salt
Preheat the oven to 350
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, or you can use hand held beaters, cream the butter on medium speed until light. Gradually add the sugar and beat for another 2 minutes.
Add the Maximum pie Spice and salt, beat to combine.
Mix in the flour until well incorporated. It should resemble a dough and pull apart from the side of the bowl when mixing. Add a little flour if need be.
On a lightly floured surface, knead the cookie dough until smooth.
Roll out the dough, using flour on top or bottom when needed, until about 1/4 inch thick.
Use your cookie cutters of choice to make your shapes. The dough should still be a bit soft so handle carefully when placing them on the prepared cookie sheets.
Ball up the excess dough and roll out again!
Bake for 10-15 minutes; until they are just very lightly brown. Cool completely on pan.
