These are an excellent sugar cookie recipe! I’m so picky when it comes to sugar cookies. None of them ever compare to my mom’s cookies. These are perfectly sweet & not to crispy and not too soft. Love!! Decorate them with regular christmas frosting and sprinkles and your friends & family will thank you

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl combine the butter and sugar. Mix with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Mix in the egg and vanilla until mixed well.
- Slowly add in the flour mixture until your dough is mixed but still crumbles. Turn the cookie mixture out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead the dough until it forms a smooth ball.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Divide the dough into fourths. Working with one section at a time, roll the dough out on a piece of parchment paper that has been lightly dusted with Bob’s Red Mill Flour to ¼ inch thick.
- Use your favorite cookie cutters to cut out the shapes you desire. Place the cut outs onto your parchment lined baking sheet, ½ an inch apart.
- Bake in a 350-degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are light golden brown.
- Remove to a wire rack for cooling. Once they are cool you can decorate them any way you like.
