Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 large Eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 2

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

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 just until combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 5

Divide the dough into two portions. Flatten each portion into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 7

On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of the chilled dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Keep the other portion refrigerated until ready to roll.

Step 8

Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes and carefully transfer them to the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Optional: Decorate the cookies with icing, sprinkles, or other toppings as desired.
