Ingredients
  • 1C flour (unbleached all purpose)
  • 1/4tsp baking powder
  • 1/4tsp baking soda
  • 1/4tsp salt
  • 1/3C buttery spread
  • 1/2C granulated sugar
  • 1/2 egg replacer
  • 1Tbsp soy milk
  • 1/4tsp vanilla
  • 1/4tsp lemon extract
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, mix the dry ingredients.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the buttery spread and sugar until light and fluffy; add the egg replacer, milk, vanilla and lemon extract. Mix the dry ingredients into the buttery spread and sugar mixture; chill covered for at least two hours.
  3. Form the dough into a ball and let it warm to almost room temperature (but still chilled). On a floured board, roll to 1/8-inch thick; use cookie cutters, decorate and bake at 375 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes on ungreased cookie sheets. Cool the cookies and finish decorating the cookies with frosting, if desired.
