Betty Crocker's Sugar Cookies


I have been making these cookies every year for christmas since i was in high school!! i roll them really thin so they are crispy, not soft/chewy and only add sprinkles. this recipe is for a double batch, but can easily be divided. **chilling dough not included in prep time**

Steps


Cream together butter , sugar , eggs , and vanilla.
In a separate bowl combine flour , baking powder , and salt.
Gradually mix dry ingredients into the butter / sugar mixture and stir until incorporated.
Cover with plastic wrap and let chill in fridge until cold.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees f.
Roll out approximately 1 1 / 2-2 cups of dough at a time.
Cut cookies with seasonal cookie cutters.
Place cookies on parchment-lined cookie sheets for easy clean up.
Sprinkle with colored sugar sprinkles.
Bake 6-8 minutes or until edges turn golden brown.
Cool on wire rack and store at room temperature in an air-tight container.
