Brown sugar cookies2 cups sifted flour, less if possible
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
granulated sugar, for decorating
Blend 1 cup flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla, and cream. Stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture, then add enough of the remaining 1 cup flour to make the dough stiff enough to roll. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill several hours. Preheat oven to 375 F. Place on a lightly floured cutting board and roll to 1/8" thickness. Use floured cookie cutters to cut into shapes. Place on an ungreased baking sheet, sprinkle with granulated sugar. Bake 8 minutes.
Be cautious not to give into temptation and eat all your sweet goodies this season. We can enjoy teats from time to time, but do not overindulge.
Proverbs 23:12, "For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags."Isn't it interesting that he names gluttony in the same verse as a drunkard? Be wise with your winter delicacies meeting up with your taste buds. ;O)
