Instructions
- Cream room-temperature butter and sugar, then beat in the egg and all flavor ingredients.
- Mix in sifted flour, baking powder and salt to make a smooth dough; avoid excessive kneading.
- Divide dough in two, roll between parchment to 5 mm and chill 45 minutes until firm.
- Heat oven to 350°F (177°C). Stamp 30 holiday shapes and transfer to parchment-lined trays 2 cm apart.
- Bake 9–11 minutes, just until edges color lightly. Let cool 3 minutes on tray before moving to rack.
- Decorate only once fully cooled.
Tips
- Measure flour by weight; extra flour makes dense, dry cookies.
- Chilled dough and parchment promote even geometry and prevent sticking.
