10/Cooking With Chef Ramos

BasicSugarCookies

Makes 2 dozen

INGREDIENTS

4-oz.unsaltedbutter

1cupsugar

1wholeegg

½tsp.vanillaextract

1-½cupsall-purpose flour

¾tsp.baking powder

1/8tsp bakingsoda

¼tsp.koshersalt

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a mixer or mixing bowl combine butter and sugar. Cream the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy with paddle on high

Add whole egg and vanilla extract. Process until combined. Sift together remaining dry ingredients. Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix until just combined. Allow dough to rest for 20 minutes. Make balls of the dough with a 1-oz scoop. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper and space dough balls two inches apart Bake the cookies for 6 minutes Rotate the tray 180 degrees and bake for another 6 minutes. Remove cookies and allow to cool. Enjoy! A basic sugar cookie recipe is a blank canvas to create other flavors and textures.Try a dusting of cinnamon sugar for snickerdoodle. Dip in chocolate for a black and white cookie. Fold in ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice for pumpkin spice cookie.It’s better to underwork the dough than overwork it. Overworked dough results in a hard, dry and crumbly cookie. You want moist and slightly pliable cookies.This recipe can be made ahead and rolled into logs and frozen.

SETHSMITH/ GROUNDS

SUPERINTENDENT

The grounds team sodded the front of #15 and #13 greens this week, following the liner removal. I’m seeing drainage improvement in all areas where the liner was removed. Most thin areas will heal in naturally,and we have plugged and sodded where it was necessary. We also added more drainage pipe in #13 approach. Some vandalism occurred on #18 green Tuesday night. The grounds team quickly repaired and sodded the affected area.
