How to Make Best Butter Cookies Cutouts
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- 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.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (this helps prevent the cookies from spreading).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes. Place cookies onto prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, decorate your cookies with colored sugar, sprinkles, or other fun toppings!
