Cookie Recipe

And because 'Tis the season to bake, here is my favorite cookie recipe which I tried today, and came out DELICIOUS! 

                  Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
•  2 cups white sugar
•  4 eggs
•  1 teaspoon vanilla extract
•  5 cups all-purpose flour
•  2 teaspoons baking powder
•  1 teaspoon salt

1. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cover, and chill dough for at least one hour (or overnight).
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Roll out dough on floured surface 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cut into shapes with any cookie cutter. Place cookies 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
3. Bake 6 to 8 minutes in preheated oven. Cool completely
4. To make icing, mix the milk and the sugar together with a fork. To make it more of a thin glaze, add more milk.  To make it a thicker icing, add more powdered sugar.
