No baking powder? No problem. These sugar cookies rely on butter, sugar, and a perfect baking technique to stay tender and delicious — ready for frosting, sprinkles, or enjoying plain with tea.
Ingredients
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Divide dough in half, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roll dough to ¼-inch thickness and cut into desired shapes.
Place on parchment-lined baking sheets and bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden.
