Turn the mixer to low and add in the flour until just incorporated. Divide the dough in half and roll each half into a 1 1/2- inch thick log. Sprinkle the coarse sugar onto a clean counter and roll each log into the sugar, coating evenly.

Wrap each log in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least ⏱️ 1 hour or up to 2 days.

When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.

Remove the cookie dough from the refrigerator, unwrap, and slice each log into 1/4- inch rounds. Place cookies onto the prepared baking sheet 1- inch apart. Bake for 15 – ⏱️ 18 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for ⏱️ 3 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
