Two step holiday cookies are twice as fun to make!
¾ cup Butter
¾ cup Sugar
2 cups Flour
½ tsp. Salt
2 Eggs
½ tsp. Vanilla
½ tsp. Baking Powder
Day 1: Soften butter and mix with sugar until creamy. Add eggs and then other ingredients, mixing flour in a little at a time. Refrigerate overnight.
Day 2: Spread 1 cup flour on wax paper on a hard surface. Roll dough until it's about 1/8 " thick. Use cookie cutters to cut cookies. Make a hole in the top of each cookie with a straw. Place cookies on un-greased baking sheets lined with aluminum paper. Bake in pre heated oven at 375 degrees for 5 - 10 minutes. Decorate with frosting and run ribbons through the holes to hang on the tree!
