1 c. unsalted butter (2 sticks)
1 egg
1 1/2 c. white sugar
1 tsp real vanilla extract
1 tsp orange extract
2 3/4 c. white flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
Heat oven to 400 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg and extracts.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder cinnamon and salt. Add flour mixture to butter mixture one cup at a time, mixing well in between each addition. Use at room temperature, do not refrigerate.
Divide dough into 2 halves. Using a well floured flat surface, roll one ball at a time out to 1/8" thickness. Use well floured cookie cutters to form shapes, or use a glass to make circles.
Bake on an ungreased cooke sheet for 5-8 minutes, depending on the size of the cookie. Remove from the oven as soon as the edges begin to lightly brown. Completely cool on rack before decorating or serving.
