Directions
Beat butter and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer until creamy. Add egg; beat until fluffy. Stir in flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt until well blended.
Form into a ball; wrap in plastic wrap and flatten. Refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm.
Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃).
Roll out dough, a small portion at a time, to ¼ inch thickness on lightly floured surface with lightly floured rolling pin. Keep remaining dough in refrigerator.
Cut with 3 inch cookie cutter. Sprinkle with colored sprinkles, if desired. Transfer to ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake 7 to 9 minutes until edges are lightly browned. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheets. Remove to wire racks; cool completely. Store in airtight container.
