These aren't very sweet; they're more like shortbread (but of a cookie texture).
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Directions:
1. Cream butter; gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add egg; beat well.
2. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add to creamed mixture; blend. Tint with food coloring if desired. Cover and chill dough for at least 1 hour.
3. Roll and cut out cookies; decorate if desired. Bake at 350 F for 10-12 minutes.
