Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
-
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
-
Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with the bottom of a glass.
-
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, cream together the powdered sugar, softened unsalted butter, and vanilla extract to make the frosting. Add food coloring if desired.
-
Once the cookies have cooled, frost them using a butter knife or piping bag. Allow the frosting to set before serving.
