Tea Party Cookies!

It's time for a tea party.

I ordered a 3 pack of tea cookie cutters from amazon, thanks Wilton! I got a teapot, a teacup and a muffin. I decided to make sugar cookies and decorate them a bit :) 

Recipe

1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

*I used orange*

2 sticks of unsalted butter, softened

1 1/2 cup granualted sugar

*I used dark brown sugar*

1 Egg

2 3/4 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt

Preheat Oven to 400°F. Cream the butter with sugar in a mixing bowl until it's light and fluffy.

Beat in the egg along with the vanilla and orange or almond extracts.

Add the flour and salt one cup at a time, mixing after each addition. Do not chill the dough and divide into two. On a floured surface roll out each ball. Make sure to cover the cookie cutters in flour before using. 

Place cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 6-7 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned.
