Directions:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

• Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

• Using a standing or hand mixer cream your butter until soft. 

• Add all of your sugar, and extract, then whip again until the sugar and butter are homogenous and thoroughly mixed.

• Add your flour roughly one cup at a time and mix until well combined.

• Once all your flour has been incorporated dump the dough onto a well floured surface and roll it out until 1/2 inch thick.

• Using cookie cutters or a pizza cutter portion out the dough into individual cookies and place on your sheet tray.

• Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown on the edges, making sure to rotate the pan after 6 minutes if your oven cooks unevenly. Remove from the oven and let cool for several minutes before transferring to a cooling rack or a plate. Let cool completely before serving.
