Title: Bridget's Vanilla Cutout Cookies
Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Desserts
Yield: 16 Servings

3 c Unbleached all-purpose
- flour
2 ts Baking powder
1 c Salted butter; cold, in
- chunks
1 c Sugar
1 lg Egg
3/4 ts Pure vanilla extract
1/2 ts Pure almond extract

Position a rack in the center of the oven and set the
oven @ 350+|F/175+|C.

Line three cookie sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking
powder. Set this mixture aside.

In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle
attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until
combined and fluffy. Beat in the egg and extracts,
mixing until combined.

Add the flour mixture in three parts, mixing on low
speed. Scrape down the sides and bottoms of the bowl as
needed. After the last addition, the dough will look
very thick and crumbly.

Prepare a rolling surface and roll out a portion of the
dough. Cut as many shapes from the dough as possible and
place them on a prepared cookie sheet, about 2 inches
apart.

Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for 10 minutes.
Freezing the cookies will help keep them from spreading.
Meanwhile, knead the scraps and remaining dough together
and continue the rolling, cutting, and freezing process
on a second cookie sheet.

After freezing, immediately bake the cookies on the
center rack of your oven for 9 to 12 minutes (for 3.5 to
4" cookies), or until they appear done in the
center. The baked cookies wongCOt change much in color.

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on
the cookie sheets for 2 minutes. With a thin cookie
spatula, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool
completely.
