Butter cookies

Now-a-days mm is not at all eating. He just munches some or other thing. One of his favorites is butter cookies. Very easy for me to do and can be stored for many days. Here is the recipe for this cookie.

Butter - 1/3 cup
Sugar - 3/4 cup
egg - 1
All purpose flour - 2 cup
vanilla extract - 1 tspoon
Baking powder - 2 tspoon
salt - 2 pinches

Beat the butter and add sugar to it. Mix thoroughly. Now add baking powder and salt and beat continuously. Then add egg and vanilla extract and beat well. Now add the all purpose flour and knead well. Cover tightly with a plastic wrap and refrigerate. After 2 hrs take them, roll and cut into desired shapes.. Bake them in a preheated oven(375°F) for 10 minutes or till they become light brown in color. Cool them. Now we can decorate them with icing.

It is not soo healthy but i use this cookie to teach shapes to mm. Serves some purpose... hi hi.
