Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 sticks of butter
1 cup of sugar
3 1/2 cups of sifted flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
4 eggs

Directions:

Sift dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add eggs, vanilla and softened margarine. Mix well. Roll into ball and refrigerate for a while, makes it easier to handle. Remove from bowl, and cut a piece off. Roll out flat. Use a cookie cutter, or roll into long little pieces and make a braid or shape like a wreath. Use your imagination. Make them in any shape or form you wish. Bake on cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Cool on wire rack. Decorate with a mixture of powdered sugar and water. Make the paste thick but thin enough to put on cookies. Drizzle on each cookie and then put Christmas sprinkles on them
