Before you jump to Sugar Swirl Cookies recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Healthy Eating Doesn’t Need To Be A Chore.

Healthy eating is nowadays a great deal more popular than it used to be and rightfully so. Poor diet is a contributing factor in diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure which can put a drain on the economy. While we’re always being encouraged to adopt healthy eating habits, it is also easier than ever to rely on fast food and other convenience items that are not healthy for us. It is likely that many people assume it will take great effort to eat a healthy diet or that they have to make a large scale change to the way they live. In reality, however, just making some minor changes can positively affect day-to-day eating habits.

These more wholesome food choices can be applied to other foods such as your cooking oils. Olive oil has monounsaturated fat which can help to reduce bad cholesterol. It also provides vitamin E which is good for your skin, among other things. It could be that you already think that you consume fruit and leafy greens but it can be worthwhile considering how fresh these are depending on where you purchase these. If at all possible, try buying organic produce that has not been sprayed with harmful chemical substances. You can be certain that you’re getting the most nutritional benefits from your fresh produce if you can find a local supplier because you will be able to buy the fruit when it is the freshest and ripest.

All in all, it is not hard to start to make healthy eating a part of your daily lifestyle.

We hope you got insight from reading it, now let’s go back to sugar swirl cookies recipe. To cook sugar swirl cookies you need 10 ingredients and 16 steps. Here is how you do that.

The ingredients needed to prepare Sugar Swirl Cookies:
  1. Prepare 3/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  2. Provide 3/4 cup white sugar
  3. You need 1 egg (room temperature)
  4. You need 2 tsp vanilla extract
  5. Provide 1/4 tsp almond extract (for extra flavor, if you have it)
  6. You need 2 1/4 cups flour
  7. Prepare 1/2 tsp baking powder
  8. Prepare 1/4 tsp salt
  9. Get Food coloring of your choice
  10. Provide Sprinkles
Steps to make Sugar Swirl Cookies:
  1. Start by beating the butter until it is creamy and smooth
  2. Add sugar and beat on high until smooth
  3. Then add your egg, vanilla and almond extract. Beat until fully blended
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together your flour, baking powder and salt.
  5. Slowly start to mix your flour mixture in with your wet ingredients, a little at a time.
  6. Once your dough is formed, devide it into 2. Set one half side and add your food coloring to the other half. (I added about 8 drops to get the color green that I wanted. You'll have to add a little at a time until you're satisfied with the color.)
  7. Once your colored dough is blended, roll both batches of dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap and let cool in your fridge for 30 mins.
  8. When finished cooling, roll both balls of dough flat, into a rectangular shape. Try to keep them the same size and shape. Once they are rolled out, put one on top of the other and slightly roll again with rolling pin.
  9. Then roll your dough into a "log."
