Easy Easter Baking

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

4. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until well combined and the batter is smooth.

6. Divide the batter into separate bowls, one for each color you plan to use. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl and mix until you achieve your desired pastel shades.

7. Using a spoon or piping bag, drop dollops of the colored batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.

8. Add sprinkles or decorations to the top of each cookie for a festive touch.

9. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

10. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

11. Once cooled, store your Easter baking in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Enjoy these delightful treats with a cup of tea or coffee, or share them with loved ones during your Easter gathering.
