Time 1h45m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
⅔ cup white sugar
1 individual packet vanilla sugar
1 egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice, or more if needed
1 drop assorted food coloring
1 (1.75 ounce) package multicolored candy sprinkles, or as desired

Steps:

  • Combine 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon butter, white sugar, vanilla sugar, and egg in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  • Mix flour and baking powder together. Beat into the butter mixture on low speed until dough becomes crumbly. Work dough crumbles with your hands into a smooth dough and place into a sealable container. Refrigerate until chilled, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Roll the dough out to 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface and cut into desired shapes using cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Pick up all the left over dough, press together into a ball, and repeat the rolling and cutting out process until all the dough is used up.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before carefully removing to a wire rack with a knife or thin spatula to cool completely.
  • Mix confectioners' sugar and lemon juice until glaze has a smooth and spreadable consistency. Add more lemon juice if you like a thinner glaze. Add food coloring if you like. Brush frosting on cooled cookies and add chocolate sprinkles or sugar sprinkles if desired.
