How to Make Charmie's Soft Sugar Cookies

  1. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened margarine or butter with 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; blend well.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 ½ hours (or up to overnight).
  5. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the chilled dough to ½ inch thickness.
  6. Use your favorite cookie cutters to cut out shapes. Place cookies onto ungreased baking sheets.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Keep a close eye on them to prevent over-baking.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cool, frost with your favorite vanilla frosting and enjoy!
