Buttery Soft Christmas Cookies

Ingredients:

• 3 3/4 cups all purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1 cup softened butter (not melted)
• 1 1/2 cups of granulated white sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheets. On a clean floured surface, roll out small portions of chilled dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out shapes using cookie cutters. You can find cute and fun Christmas cookie cutters here.

• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are barely brown. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks. Once cooled decorate using your favorite royal icing colors. Enjoy!

These cookies will keep their shape nicely and remain soft and chewy long after being cooled. Bake ahead and store in the freezer. They will remain fresh for 3-6 months as long as they are wrapped tightly in plastic and kept in an airtight container.
