I love sugar cookies! A friend of mine brought these to an event, and they were great. She says they don't roll out well to make shaped cookies, but great to use a cookie scoop and bake. The dough does not need to be chilled first.

Cream together the butter, eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Add in the flour, salt, and baking powder. Scoop onto a greased cookie sheet and Bake at 350 for 9 minutes.
Frosting
