      Title: Sugar Cookies
 Categories: Polkadot, Faylen, Cookies
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      3 c  Flour
  1 1/2 c  Sugar
      2 ts Baking powder
      1 pn Salt
      1 c  Butter
      2 lg Eggs, beaten
      1 ts Vanilla
 
  Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift dry ingredients together.  Work
  butter into the dry mixture with a pastry cutter until it becomes
  coarse grains. Add eggs and vanilla and mix until blended. You can
  use an electric mixer at this point, but it's better if done by hand.
  Roll out dough to about 1/8 inch thick and cut with cookie cutter.
  Space cookies 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Bake 8-10 minutes and
  cool on racks. Cool completely before frosting.
  
  These are the Christmas cookies that my family's sworn by for three
  generations. You can fool around with them by adding different
  extracts - I've done well with mint extract and almond extract.
