Preheat over to 375F.
To make the cookies, cream the butter and sugar
with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add
the egg and vanilla and beat them in.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and
cinnamon. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into
the creamed mixture. Mix until all the ingredients
are thoroughly blended.
Load the dough into a cookie press with your
favorite design plate and pres the cookies onto an
ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 2
inches apart. If you aren't using a cookie press,
roll walnut-sized pieces of dough between your
palms and place them on the baking sheet. Flatten
them with the bottom of a drinking glass.
Bake the cookies for 6-8 minutes, until edges are
firm and the bottoms are lightly browned.
To make frosting, combine the butter and 2 c. of
the powdered sugar in a medium bowl. Using an
electric mixer, begin beating on medium speed
until mix is smooth, then add the remaining
powdered sugar.
Stir in vanilla and a few drops of food coloring,
then slowly add the milk. Beat until the mixture
reaches a spreading consistency.
Frost cooled cookies and store in airtight
container.
