I got this cookie recipe from a favorite blog - www.hillbillyhousewife.com.)
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Quick and Easy Sugar Cookies
- 1/2 cup room temp (soft) margarine (melted is fine)
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1-1/2 cups flour
In a medium sized bowl cream together the margarine and sugar. Beat it until it is smooth and fluffy. Add the egg, milk and vanilla, mixing well. Stir in the salt, baking powder and flour. Blend it all up until it makes a nice smooth dough. Spread into a sprayed (prepared) 8 x 8 baking pan. Bake in a completely PREHEATED oven for approximately 15 minutes or until the cookie starts to brown at the edges.
Remove from oven to cool completely.
HM Vanilla Frosting (small batch):
2 Tablespoons room temperature margarine (or melted is fine)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 Tablespoons milk
2 cups powdered sugar.
Stir all until very smooth. If its not creamy enough for you, add another teaspoon of milk.
Tint with either gel food paste or a few drops of food color.
Spread on cooled cookie and add some sprinkles. (If you don't want frosted cookies, just sprinkle on some colored sugar before baking!)
Cut into small squares! These are soft, delicious and VERY PRETTY TOO!
