Ingredients
  • ⅔ cup butter
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • Dash salt
  • Powdered Sugar Icing
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl beat butter with an electric mixer for 30 seconds. Add half the flour, the egg, sugar, milk, baking powder, vanilla and salt. Beat till thoroughly combined. Beat in remaining flour. Divide dough in half. Cover, chill for 3 hours.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll half of the dough at a time ⅛-1/4"thick. Cut into desired shapes. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 7-8 minutes or till edges are firm (crispier cookies require a couple more minutes till edges are lightly browned). Cool cookies on a rack. Frost with Powdered Sugar Icing.
