Ingredients
- 227 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 375 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
Step 2
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Divide the dough into two portions. Flatten each portion into a disk and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
Step 6
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 7
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of the dough to about 1/4 inch (6 mm) thickness. Keep the other portion in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Step 8
Cut out shapes using cookie cutters and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 9
Gather scraps, reshape into a ball, re-roll, and cut out more shapes as needed.
Step 10
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake.
Step 11
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Decorate as desired with icing, sprinkles, or enjoy them plain!
