Mum's Old Fashioned Sugar Cookies



Who doesn't love sugar cookies.  Seems to be a holiday favorite around my house.  Gotta break out the Christmas Cookie Cutters.


Ingredients

1 1/2 cups (250 mL) white sugar
1 cup (250 mL) butter
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla
1 egg
2 3/4 cups (625 mL) all-purpose flour
2 tsp (10 mL) baking powder
1/2 tsp (2.5 mL) salt

Stuff you will need

Electric mixer
Rolling pin
Cookie cutter

Directions

With electric mixture, beat sugar, butter and vanilla until mixture is creamy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down sides of bowl.  Add eggs beating after each egg; beat thoroughly. 

In a separate bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt. Beat the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture.

Roll out cookie dough to 1/4" (0.6 cm) onto a lightly floured board. For best results, do not roll cookie dough too thin. Use cookie cutters of your choice for a variety of different shapes and sizes. Place cookies on parchment lined cookie sheets.

Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes or until the underside of cookies turn golden brown.
