C is for Cookie! That's good enough for me!

We had such a great time when we made cookies! We all got a turn to add stuff into the mixer, and then when the dough was ready, we shaped it into cookies. It was like play-do but just more fun! We also used our artistic talents to decorate them with different types of colorful sprinkles!

Here is the recipe for those yummy sugar cookies:

1 1/2 c powdered sugar

1 c margerine

1 egg

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 tsp. almond extract

2 1/2 c flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. cream of tartar

granulated sugar

Directions:

Mix first five ingredients together. Then add the flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar. Refrigerate dough for at least two hours. Preheat oven to 375. Shape cookies, sprinkle sugar on top. It is also fun to decorate with sprinkles. Food coloring mixed in egg yolks is cool to use as 'paint'. Place on lightly greased pan and bake for about ten minutes.
