These cookies are my grandchildren's favorite. I've even shaped the dough in the form of their initials for special occasions. They make a great dessert anytime.
Ingredients:
2 cups butter, softened
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
6 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
red colored sugar, optional
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Combine flour and baking powder; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.
2. Shape with a cookie press. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Decorate with sugar if desired. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until edges are light brown. Yield: 18-19 dozen.
