1. Cream together softened butter and confectioner’s sugar. Crack
the egg into a separate bowl, and add the flavoring. Add that to
the butter sugar mixture and mix until the egg is thoroughly
incorporated.
2. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and
salt, then add little by little to the mixture. You can tell when the
dough is ready when most of it sticks to the paddle. When I touch
it, it has a little give, but does not stick to my fingers.
3. Roll out on parchment to about 1/4 an inch thick, use flour for
dusting as necessary. Then, cut and bake at 400 degrees for 7-8
minutes. This version makes 2-2 1/2 dozen, doubled, it makes 4-
5 dozen.
