I found this recipe on a bag of Wal-mart sugar some time ago, and it was so simple, I had to try it. I have tried a zillion sugar cookie recipes, trying to get the soft cookie I like best. I think I have found the perfect sugar cookie. Please note that your cookie yield will vary, depending on what size cookie cutter you used. When I use a variety of sized Christmas cookie cutters, I normally get about 2-1/2 dozen.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, cream together sugar, butter, milk, vanilla and egg.
- Lightly spoon flour into a measuring cup, level off. Add the flour, baking powder and salt to creamed mix, mix well.
- Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour for easier handling.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- On lightly floured surface, roll out 1/3 of the dough at a time to approximately 1/8 inch thickness (I don't whip out a measuring tape at this point--just an estimation--eyeball to the thickness that you prefer.).
- Cut with desired cookie cutters.
- Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Decorate as desired.
- Bake at 400 degrees 5-9 minutes until edges are very light golden. (In my oven, this takes about 6 minutes.) Be careful not to overbake (if you like soft cookies, as I do.).
- Immediately remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.
