Butter Cookies

It was winter break for my daughter’s school, and holiday season. I wanted to do something she loves doing and also something which would keep her busy for sometime. So I decided to make these simple butter cookies. These cookies are easy are very less time consuming and fun to do with your kids. I had great time doing them with my daughter.

Ingredients:



Wilton cookie press.



3 ½ cups all purpose flour,

3 sticks / 1 ½ cups of butter (room temperature.)

1 tsp baking powder.

1 cup sugar

1 egg

2 tbsp milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

Cookie press to make different shapes and designs.

Method:

Preheat oven at 350° F.

In a bowl combine flour and baking powder and keep aside.

Now in large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg, milk and vanilla extract. Mix well till the egg gets incorporated.

Then add flour mixture and mix well.

With the help of a cookie press make desired shape of cookies on a baking sheet.

Bake 10 to 12 min. or till the edges are golden brown. Cool for a min on the baking sheet and remove immediately on a cookie rack to cool completely.

Store in container and enjoy for weeks. Decorate with your favorite frosting just before serving or it will turn them soggy.

Enjoy!
