Sugar Cookies with a Cafe Glaze and Chocolate Sprinkles<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

1 cup butter, softened
\n1 cup sugar
\n1 large egg
\n2 tsp vanilla
\n2 tsp baking powder
\n3 cup flour
\n1 tsp salt<\/p>\n

Preheat oven to 400F
\nIn small mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.<\/p>\n

Cream butter with sugar until light and fluffy.
\nAdd egg and vanilla and continue beating until well blended.<\/p>\n

Add in flour mixture a cup at a time, stirring well after each addition.<\/p>\n

Do not chill dough. Divide dough into 2 balls. On a floured surface, roll each ball into a circle approximately 12 in. wide and 1\/8 in. thick. Dip desired cookie cutter in flour before each use. ( I like those nesting Tupperware ones!)<\/p>\n

Sprinkle tops with raw sugar or sprinkles.<\/p>\n

Bake cookies on ungreased cookie sheet 6-7 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned.<\/p>\n

Scrape cookie sheet before next batch in order to clear off melted sugar bits.<\/p>\n

Cool cookies completely on a wire rack.<\/p>\n

For an interesting twist:
\nAdd 2 Tablespoons Epicure Summer Fruit Dip Mix to the Flour mixture
\nAdd 1 Tablespoon Pink Lemonade Concentrate when you stir in the Egg.<\/p>\n

Flavour your Simple Glaze with
\n2 Tablespoons Raspberry Juice (just squish a enough raspberries to give you 2 Tbsp.)
\n1 Tablespoon Pink Lemonade Concentrate<\/p>\n
