Tara's Sugar Cookies
Ingredients 3 Cups Flour 1 Cup Sugar 1 1/2 Teaspoons Baking Powder 1/2 Teaspoon Salt 1 Cup Butter, softened 1 Egg, slightly beaten 3 Tablespoons Cream 1 Teaspoon Vanilla or Almond Extract
| 
I usually make 2 batches, one with vanilla and one with the Almond extract (although, I think I like the Almond just a touch more). This recipe makes about 3 dozens of cookies.
Directions
Sift dry ingredients.
Cut in butter, and add other ingredients, blend well.
Chill in fridge for several hours.
Take a piece of dough the size of an orange.
Use a rolling pin on floured dough (2:1 ratio flour/sugar) roll to 1/4 inch thick.
Cut out in shapes and put on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake 5-8 minutes at 400 F degrees.
