Instructions

1 In a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of your stand mixer
[https://rstyle.me/+H558nAozxmC8mA75cNFdcA], cream together butter and sugar
until smooth.

Next, beat in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
2 Last, stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Be careful to not overmix!
3 Cover, and chill dough for at least one hour or overnight.
4 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and roll out dough on floured surface 1/4 to 1/2
inch thick.
5 Bakers Tip: Use Powdered sugar instead of flour, or a mix of flour and powdered
sugar, to cover your surface to avoid sticking. This will help keep your dough
buttery.
6 After your dough is rolled out, cut into shapes with any cookie cutter. Place
cookies 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets covered with parchment
