Alright, I will admit it, I love cookies. I love everything about them, their sugary taste, their portability and most of all the smell. These are tiny, itty bitty Butterfly Cookies, took me all of, half an hour to make. And everyone had the time, I made them Monday, before class and after work, okay maybe not EVERYONE has the time, cooking is a way to relax for me, so maybe no one has the time. If you don't, just buy pretty cookies or bake with a few friends and divide the goods afterwords.
INGREDIENTS
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, and place onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes before removing to cool on wire racks.
Okay, I cut the recipie in half and then cut them into uber tiny shapes so they cooked supper fast, plus, I didn't refrigerate, who has time? Still I had so much leftover dough it is still in my fridge. I then iced this and froze them in a cottage cheese container, look out for them in my Bento's!
