PERFECT CUT-OUT COOKIE DOUGH
This recipe always comes out perfect. My toddlers and I make these often. I throw the dough together in the morning and let it sit in the fridge. I take it out at dinner time to let it warm just a bit, and we roll them out and ice them after for dessert. You use different flavors of extract and add spices. For fall, I use maple extract and add cinnamon and nutmeg. I use my mixer to prepare dough and it comes together super easy.

Steps:
- Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; set aside. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg. Gradually stir in the sifted ingredients to form a soft dough. Divide dough into 2 pieces, flatten and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/8 inch in thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters.

- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

One of my father's favorites - from the Beefsteak Mining Company. I use the frozen orange juice and lemonade in cans so I can reuse the cans for measuring everything else.

- Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface: This will help the dough not stick to the surface and make it easier to roll out.
- Use a sharp knife or pastry cutter to cut the dough: This will help you achieve clean, even cuts.
- Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven: This will help them rise evenly and prevent them from becoming dry.
- Serve the biscuits warm with your favorite toppings: Butter, honey, jam, or gravy are all classic options.
