Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  3. Incorporate Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs, one at a time, to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract.

  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

  5. Form the Dough: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth dough forms.

  6. Shape the Biscuits: Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about ¼ inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes.

  7. Bake to Perfection: Bake the Butter Biscuits in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

  8. Dust with Powdered Sugar: Once the Butter Biscuits have cooled slightly, dust them with powdered sugar for an elegant finish.
