       1 c  Soft butter
       1 l  Egg
   1 1/2 ts Vanilla

     In large mixing bowl, cream together butter and powdered sugar. Add
     remaining ingredients, mix at low speed until dough is formed.Cover
     bowl and chill for several hours.When ready to make cookies, you may
     tint dough with food coloring if desired.
     To make cookies: you may shape into 1 in.balls and roll in colored
     sugar. You may flatten balls and decorate. You can roll out dough and
     cut with cookie cutters. Or as I do, load dough into cookie press and
     extrude into various shapes. Decorate cookies as desired. Bake on
     ungreased cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes.Cookies will
     be soft and harden as they cool.
