    In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar with an electric mixer. Beat in egg and vanilla. Add baking powder, spice, and flour one cup at a time mixing after each addition. The dough will be very stiff; blend last flour in by hand. Do not chill dough. To tint with icing color, add small amounts until desired color is reached. Divide dough into 2 balls.
