-- For the cookie dough, beat together butter and sugar for about 2 minutes — Add the
eggs and
egg yolks until smooth, and then add vanilla — In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder, and then add the dry mix slowly to the wet until well combined — Wrap dough in saran wrap and chill in the fridge for an hour (or more)-- Preheat oven to 350 degrees — Roll out dough and cut
desired shapes, placing them about 1 inch apart on a cookie sheet — Bake for 8 - 10 minutes, depending on how chewy you like your sugar cookies!
When they are your
desired shade, take sponges that have been cut into fun
shapes (duck, bunny, flower, etc.) and dip them into white paint and then onto the
eggs.
