SPICED SNOWFLAKES
A wonderful cookie to bake with kids. Have them cut out their own snowflake stencils, then let the powdered sugar fly. Lace doilies also work well as stencils.

Steps:
- Sift flour, baking powder, spices and salt into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until light. Gradually beat in 3/4 cup sugar. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Gradually beat in dry ingredients. If dough is too soft to mold, refrigerate until firm enough.
- Spoon dough onto large sheet of plastic wrap. Roll into 7-inch-long, 2 1/4-inch-diameter log. Wrap tightly. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 2 large baking sheets. Unwrap dough and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Place on baking sheets, spacing slices 1 inch apart. Bake until light golden brown, about 12 minutes. Transfer cookies to rack and cool. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
- Place doilies or stencils atop cookies. Sift powdered sugar over. Carefully remove doilies or stencils and serve.
