Sweet Crackers are a delightful treat that brings together the best of both worlds: sweetness and crunch. Whether you enjoy them as a snack or a dessert, these homemade sweet crackers offer a unique flavor profile that can be tailored to your tastes.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour for a gluten-free option)
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup milk (or a non-dairy alternative)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)
Sprinkles, sea salt, or cinnamon sugar for garnishing (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, powdered sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut the dough into desired shapes.
Place the cut crackers onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the sweet crackers to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
