Delicious sugar cookies from The Copper Q's very first pastry chef, Carla.

Ingredients

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar with an electric mixer. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add baking powder and flour, one cup at a time, mixing after each addition. Blend last flour by hand. Do not chill dough. Divide the dough into two balls. Roll each ball into a circle on a floured cookie sheet. Assemble desired cutters on a roller and dip into flour.
