Sugar Cookies

I made these for work the other day and everyone loved them. They are super easy and very tasty!

2 3/4 C all purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 C butter, softened

1 1/2 C sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 375. In small bowl sift together flour, baking soda and baking powder, set aside.

In large mixing bowl beat butter on medium high for 2 minutes. Add sugar slowly and beat until well mixed, another 2 minutes- scrapping bowl occasionally. Beat in egg and vanilla. Beat in as much flour mixture as possible and stir in remaining mixture if cannot beat all at once.

Roll dough on lightly floured surface; cut out shapes. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and sprinkle lightly with sugar.

Bake 8 - 10 minutes or until golden brown. I prefer to have mine slightly under done to ensure chewiness.
