Default Sugar Cookies

Sugar Cookies

3/4 cup butter flavored shortening
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons milk
2 drops any color food coloring

In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and white sugar until smooth.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the milk and 1 teaspoon
vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; stir into the creamed
mixture. Cover dough, and chill for at least one hour.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease cookie
sheets, or line with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, roll out
the dough to 1/4 inch in thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie
cutters. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart onto cookie sheets.
Bake for 6 to 8 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove cookies from baking
sheets to cool on wire racks. Cool completely before frosting.
In a small bowl, beat the butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla and confectioners'
sugar until smooth. Mix in the milk one tablespoon at a time until a good
spreading consistency is reached. Stir in food coloring to desired shade.
Decorate cooled cookies, and set on waxed paper to harden.
