Instructions
- Sift flour, sugar, salt and baking powder together in a bowl.
- With a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles pie crust or biscuit mix (very fine lumps).
- Crack an egg into a glass, liquid measuring cup. A large egg will measure 1/4 cup. If it doesn't, add water to reach the 1/4 cup line.
- Add the egg, water (if needed) and the vanilla to the flour mixture and beat the mixture well.
- Fill cookie press and form cookies on ungreased cookie sheets (aluminum preferred for best heat distribution).
- Bake at 375°F for 10-12 minutes or until cookies are just set or very slightly browned. Check cookies at the 10 minute mark and bake 1-2 minutes longer, if needed.
- Remove immediately to cooling racks.
