Cooking instructions
* Step 1
In a large bowl, beat butter until smooth. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Clean the sides of the bowl.
* Step 2
Add egg, and vanilla. Mix until combined.
* Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Add half of this mixture into large bowl. Mix until slightly combined.
* Step 4
Add rest of mixture until combined. If dough is too sticky, you can add 1tbsp of flour.
* Step 5
Divide dough into 2 parts. Roll each onto parchment paper. Stack the pieces of paper onto a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
* Step 6
Once chilled, preheat oven to 350F(177C). Line 2-3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
* Step 7
Use cookie cutters (can use knife or spatula to cut if you don’t have cookie cutters) to cut into shapes. Tear away any excess dough.
* Step 8
Transfer the shapes onto prepared baking sheet. Re-roll the excess dough and keep cutting until all of it is used.
* Step 9
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until slightly golden on top and around the edges. Rotate baking sheet half way through so it will cook evenly.
* Step 10
Let cool before icing.
* Step 11
For the icing: In a medium size bowl mix sugar, vanilla, corn syrup, and water. Mix until thick.
* Step 12
OPTIONAL: separate into amount of bowls for food coloring. (I recommend red, green, and white for christmas time).
* Step 13
Decorate the cookies and then enjoy!
