List of Ingredients




1 cup softened butter
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Recipe



Cream butter. Add sugar and eggs beating well. Stir in milk and vanilla.
Combine flour, baking powder and salt in large bowl, add to creamed mixture. Mix very well, I use my hands! Chill!
Roll out dough on floured surface. The first roll out will be somewhat sticky, the second should be great! Cut with floured cookie cutters.
Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle colored sugars on cookies if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Cool in pan for 2-3 minutes then remove to wire rack.
Could also be frosted and decorated after baking.
