Create festive turkey sugar cookies for kids to decorate.
Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 tub (16 oz) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Vanilla Frosting
  • Assorted candies, if desired
Instructions:
  • Combine powdered sugar, butter, vanilla, almond extract, and egg in a large bowl. Add flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar. Refrigerate the mixture, covered, for 2 to 3 hours before using.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a cookie sheet lightly with shortening or cooking spray. Divide the dough in half. Roll out each half on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Use a 4 1/2-inch turkey or hand-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the shapes. Place the cutouts 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 7 to 9 minutes until edges turn light golden brown. Let cool for 1 minute, then transfer cookies from sheets to racks. Allow to cool completely for about 15 minutes. Frost and decorate with candies to your liking.
