Directions

Cream butter. Gradually add sugar and cream well. Blend in
the egg, cream, baking powder, baking soda, salt and vanilla.

Gradually add flour and mix well.

Chill dough until firm, several hours (it is hard to roll out
otherwise).

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Roll out dough on a floured
board to about 1/8- inch thick.

Cut into desired shapes with a flour-dipped cookie cutter.

Place on ungreased or lightly greased cookie sheet.

Decorate with colored sugar and chocolate sprinkles and use.

Bake for 5-7 minutes or until a little brown.

Cool on racks. Don't forget to cut the little holes if you wish to hang on the tree.
