Butter Cookies

 Ingredients:

  • Flour - 2 3/4 cups
  • Baking powder - 1 1/2 tsp
  • Butter - 1 cup
  • Sugar 1 1/2 cup
  • Vanila Extract - 1 tsp
  • Egg - 1
Method:

Preheat oven to 375 degree F (190 C)
Sift flour and baking powder.
In a bowl beat sugar and butter to smooth and creamy.
Beat egg in another bowl and add to the butter sugar mixture and beat.
Add vanila extract and mix well.
Now blend the flour in the mix gently.
Leave it for 20 min covered. Shape and bake for 8 to 10 min.






Note: Spread the cookies well as it expands on cooking. Do not crowd them on the tray.
For MICROWAVE cooking, shape the cookies and microwave it high for 1 min and the bake it in conventional cooking for 2 min. check after that and then keep in convention for another minute if needed. the cookie in the middle will be browned first from with in, so after the 2 min wait for a while because on cooling the texture might change, even then if you feel it is uncooked then keep for the next one min.
