Angel Sugar Cookies

There's just a splash of vanilla extract in these fan-favorite cookies; they are filled with the rich, craveable flavors of butter and sugar. When it comes to baking them, Ree urges you, "Don't overbrown!" Follow her lead and aim for just nine to 11 minutes in the oven.

Brown Sugar Oatmeal Cookies

It's up to you to either stick with Ree's classic batter or dress it up for added taste and texture, as she explains, "Add 1/2 cup finely chopped nuts to the flour mixture if you'd like a nutty flavor and crunch."
