Comment préparer Old Fashioned Tea Cakes

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for a few seconds. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes.
Place cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1/2 inch between each cookie.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
