Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 cup of unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of powdered sugar (for decoration)
- Assorted food coloring (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, stirring until a smooth dough forms. Add food coloring if desired.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about ¼ inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to create shapes inspired by The Chronicles of Narnia. Place the cut-outs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden around the edges. Let them cool on a wire rack.
- Decorate cooled cookies using powdered sugar and any additional food coloring.
- Serve with your favorite tea.
