I love this recipe for Sugar Cookies, it's from a Norwegian book called Småkaker (Cookies). It makes a lovely, crunchy cookie. I've modified the recipe slightly. 200 g flour ¼ tsp salt 2 tsp baking powder 115 g unsalted butter, room temperature 225 g sugar 1 egg flavoring (lemon, vanilla, cinnamon, almond) Mix butter and sugar. Add egg and flavoring. (I like vanilla, about ½ ts.) Add dry ingredients. Roll dough into a cylinder and wrap it tightly. Refrigerate at least an hour. Cut into slices, about four mm thick. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 12-15 min. The refrigerated dough will keep for several days or can be frozen. (I usually slice it before I freeze it and bake the cookies straight from the freezer.) Anna
