![ScorpioHR](http://hrforms.blr.com/plugins/DefaultAvatars/design/LBlueAvatar.jpg)
1 lb butter (softened)
2 cups sugar
5 cups flour (all purpose)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
Beat butter and sugar together. Add eggs, vanilla. Mix flour with baking powder and salt, slowly combine flour mixture into butter & sugar (1/2 cup at a time)
Load into cookie shooter (I use the Wilton Plus) Sprinkle on some colored sugar, chocolate, cherries, whatever you like on butter cookies.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes
Tip: If using dark cookie sheets, lower the temp to 325 and watch them!
Enjoy!

Are dark cookie sheets like a seasoned iron skillet?

p.s. the pound of butter is necessary- I work out, do yoga and jet ski, I can handle the butter!
