Cut Out Sugar Cookies step by step
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar well.
Beat in eggs and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually blend the dry mixture (second bowl) into the wet ingredients (first bowl).
Chill dough for at least three hours or overnight.
Roll dough out on a heavily floured canvas with a rolling pin until 1/8 - 1/4 thickness.
Cut out with cookie cutters.
Bake at 350°F until lightly golden.
Remove the excess dough and lift the cookies with a lightly floured spatula, then place them on a lined cookie sheet. The thicker the cookies the softer the cookies will be. Cut out shapes and use a spatula to transfer to prepared baking sheet. All cookies will not fit on one baking sheet. First, dip the cookie cutter in flour, then press the cutter into the dough.
