Soft Christmas Cut-Outs

Original recipe by Elizabeth Coblentz adapted by April McCampbell

3 cups of flour (King Arthur All Purpose)

½ teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

1 cup of butter

2 eggs, beaten

1 ½ cups of sugar

Mix all ingredients together until soft dough forms. Chill dough overnight. Roll out to about 1/8-inch thick and cut into desired shapes. Bake at 375 for approximately 8-9 minutes. When cool, spread with icing.

To adapt to drop cookies, use small scoop to form dough into balls. Roll in granulated sugar and bake.
