A simple Christmas cookie recipe

[Bren]

So I was doing a search earlier tonight for a recipe for Christmas cookies, and I came along something that looked promising. I started working on the recipe, then unfortunately, came across a part of the recipe where it said "Let chill for several hours" And I knew I didn't quite have that kind of time, so I modified the recipe and added my own slight twist to it, and these cookies turned out amazing, and very easy for anyone to make who would like some holiday cookies. The texture of them is crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the middle.

(By the way, sorry for this post being so late, but I wasn't sure if it would work myself, but the taste test produced very good results ^^)

2 cups flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 egg

1 tablespoon 15% cream (any kind of cream from 10% to 35% will work fine)

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

Sugar Sprinkles

1. Preheat oven to 375 F

2. In a small bowl, blend 1 cup flour, baking powder, and salt - set aside.

3. In a large bowl, blend together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

4. Blend egg, vanilla, and cream into butter mix.

5. Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture, then add the other cup of flour. The dough will become very stiff.

6. Pour Sprinkles into a flat-bottom container.

7. Take tablespoon sized balls of dough and flatten them slightly, then dip one side into sugar sprinkles.

8. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 minutes.

Makes 30-40 cookies

Merry Christmas everyone!
