These delicious, chewy sugar cookies offer bright flavors and a healthy alternative to butter. You can be as creative as you wish and try all our McEvoy Ranch Agrumato Method Olive Oils - We especially recommend Blood Orange, Chai Spice, or Lemon Olive Oil.

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
In a bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a second large bowl, combine sugar and McEvoy Ranch Olive Oil and mix with a wooden spoon until it forms a grainy paste. Add eggs and vanilla and stir until smooth. Fold in dry ingredients until just incorporated. You should have a fairly soft, oily dough.
Fill a small dish with more granulated sugar. Scoop dough with a cookie scoop or tablespoonful into balls and roll in sugar to coat. Arrange on a nonstick or parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between cookies.
Bake for 11 to 13 minutes or until tops are puffed and crackly and edges just start to turn light golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies are best enjoyed the day they are made, but will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
