Ingredients

40 servings
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened at room temperature)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg ((large))
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour ((measured correctly))
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder ((use aluminum free))
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 350 °F with a rack in the center. Whisk together flour with baking powder and salt in a small bowl and set aside.

  2. Using a stand-up or handheld mixer, beat the butter together with sugar. To the mixture add vanilla extract and egg and beat to combine.

  3. To the butter mixture, add flour in 3 parts until fully incorporated.

  4. Divide the dough into two equal parts. On a lightly floured surface, roll into ¼-inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out your favorite shapes.

  5. Bake cookies on a parchment or silicone-lined baking sheet at 350˚F for 10 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden.

  6. Let the cookies cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely and decorating with cookie icing.
