Cookie Bowls

I found this recipe through a Pinstrosity submission that I test out. It was pretty good stuff. Only I didn't think ahead and once the bowls were made we didn't have anything to put in them. :( But the cookie bowls were still really good.

The original recipe is found at http://www.wilton.com/recipe/Sugar-Cookie-Bowls

• Ingredients:
  
  
  2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  1 teaspoon salt
  1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  1 egg
  1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  1/2 teaspoon Almond extract (I didn't have any, so I just put an extra 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract in)

Instructions:

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray the outside of each bowl cavity of Ice Cream Cookie Bowl Pan with vegetable pan spray.

step 2

In medium bowl, combine flour and salt. In large bowl, beat butter and sugar with electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and extracts. Add flour mixture to butter mixture, 1 cup at a time, mixing after each addition.

step 3

Roll out dough on generously-floured surface to 1/8 in. thickness. Cut 4-1/2 in. circles from dough.. Drape one circle over each bowl cavity of pan, pressing to form smooth surface.

step 4

Bake 11-13 minutes or until cookie cups are firm and golden brown. Cool on pan on cooling rack 10 minutes. Loosen bottom edges of cookies from pan using small spatula. Carefully remove cups from pan and cool completely. Wash, dry and spray pan; repeat with remaining dough.
