Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2¾ cup flour

- Mix together the butter and sugar. Add the egg, milk and vanilla, stir together, then mix in the baking powder and flour until the consistency of the dough is dry enough to roll out.
- Place about a quarter of the dough at a time on a floured surface, dust lightly with more flour, then roll to about 1/4-inch thickness. Form desired shapes with cookie cutters.
- Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees in a preheated oven for 5 to 6 minutes until the cookies turn a very light brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool. Place on a rack if no further darkening is desired.
