List of Ingredients




1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon whipping cream
1 teaspoon pure extract (vanilla or lemon, or combo)
1-1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Recipe



Preheat oven to 375°.

Cream butter and sugar. Add egg. Blend in cream and extract. Combine dry ingredients and add until well blended. Shape into a flattened ball. Wrap in parchment and chill at least 1/2 hour.

Roll out onto lightly floured board until approximately 1/4-inch thick. Cut into desired shapes. If you don't plan to frost the cookies, sprinkle with colored or plain sugar. Place on parchment-covered baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake until golden brown. (Didn't say how long to bake, but I'd say 7 to 10 minutes.)
