3 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups butter--softened

Use a wire whisk to mix all dry in a bowl. Set aside.
With a mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix well. Slowly add the dry ingredients until all is incorporated and forms a nice dough. Chill for at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350Â° F.
Roll the dough to the desired thickness and cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters.
Bake cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just turning brown. Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack. Decorate as desired.
