In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a smooth dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
Divide the dough into two portions, flatten each portion into a disc, and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Keep the remaining dough chilled until ready to use.
Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes and transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 7-8 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Repeat with the remaining dough. Decorate as desired or enjoy plain.
