Just in time for your 4th of July celebration, these melt-in-your-mouth Red White and Blue Cookies are about to steal the spotlight with their sparkling beauty and their delicious taste! With just 5 ingredients, these cookies are not only easy to make, they're pretty to look at too!
Using a hand-held mixer, beat the butter until light and fluffy.
Add the condensed milk and beat into the butter until well combined.
Add the flour and baking powder. Mix into the butter mixture until well incorporated.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
In the meantime, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Set aside. Lastly, pour each sugar into a separate shallow bowl for rolling the cookie dough into.
Remove the cookie dough from the fridge and using a small cookie scoop, portion out slightly heaped teaspoons of the cookie dough. Roll it into a smooth ball and then roll it into the sanding sugar.
Place the cookie balls on the baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between each one.
Bake for 12 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
