Ingredients
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender cookies.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Wrap each portion tightly in plastic wrap, pressing into a disk shape for easy rolling later. Place the wrapped dough into a freezer-safe zip-lock bag or airtight container. Label and date the bag.
Step 6
To freeze: Store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before using.
Step 7
To bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the dough on a floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes and place them 1 inch apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 8
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Decorate as desired or enjoy plain!
