Preheat oven to 400°F

In mixing bowl cream the sugar and butter together(the longer the better,I usually let it whip while gathering my other ingridients) then add milk and vanilla before letting it all combine together.

Add flour slowly(I found that putting it in a measuring cup and lightly tapping it on the side of my mixing bowl works pretty well but you have to be very gentle or you end up with a mess) then add baking powder and salt.

Now you can either chill your dough for an hour or 2 before rolling it out a 1/4 inch thick and cutting with cookie cutters or use a cookie scoop or which ever way you scoop cookies onto an ungreased cookie sheet about 1 1\2 inches apart.

Bake for 5-9 minutes then let cool or eat warm(I learned that the hard way) They are super yummy with frosting and the recipe is very versatile(I've made chocolate chip,oatmeal and a lot of ones) I hope you love this recipe as much as me!
