Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, vanilla and dry ingredients.
Chill dough for 2 hours. Roll out and cut into shapes and bake
in a preheated 350°F oven for 6 to 8 minutes. You can tint
dough with food coloring before chilling if desired. Decorate
either with colored sugar before baking or frosting and sprinkle
after baked and cooled.
Note- I have also omitted chilling the dough and instead made
drop cookies, then frosted when done; same bake time of
350°F for 6 to 8 minutes.
