Classic Sugar Cookies with Egg
Yolk Paint
1 ½ cups confectioner's sugar
1 cup butter
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
½ tsp. almond extract
2 ½ cups flour
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. baking soda
Colored sprinkles and/or egg yolk paint (recipe follows)
Cream sugar and butter with a mixer until fluffy. Add egg and flavorings and
mix well.

bowl and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 375º.
Divide dough in half. Roll out on surface lightly dusted with confectioner's
sugar. Cut with cookie cutters and place on ungreased cookie sheets covered
with a silicone baking sheet for easy removal. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes, until
cookies begin turning a light brown at the edges. Cool, then decorate with
egg yolk paint.
EGG YOLK PAINT

¼ tsp. water
Food coloring
Prepare one recipe of egg yolk paint for every 2 colors desired. Combine egg
yolk and water and mix well. Divide into 2 small Tupperware containers, custard
cups or paper cups. Stir in food coloring. Keep tightly covered until
ready for use. If paint thickens, add a few drops of water. Paint
as desired for a colored glaze, and add colored sprinkles.
