Does anyone have a quick and easy Christmas cookie recipe?

I am going to a cookie exchange tomorrow and have barely any time to bake between now and then.Does anyone have a quick and easy Christmas cookie recipe?
yea, pilsberry easy cookieDoes anyone have a quick and easy Christmas cookie recipe?
Really easy and yummy- no need to refrigerate or deal with cookie cutters. The recipe calls for buttermilk, but many people have said that other milks work just as well.


You can also roll the cookies in the sugar sprinkles before baking.








2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour


1 teaspoon baking soda


1/2 teaspoon baking powder


1 cup softened butter


1 1/2 cups white sugar


1 egg


1 teaspoon vanilla extract


3 to 4 tablespoons buttermilk


Sprinkles or colored sugar, for decorating





Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.


In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.





In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Gradually blend in dry ingredients. Add enough of the buttermilk to moisten the dough and make it soft, not wet.





Roll rounded teaspoons of dough into balls and place on a ungreased cookie sheet. With a brush or fingers, moisten the top of each cookie with the remaining buttermilk and slightly flatten the top of each cookie. Sprinkle with raw sugar or colored sprinkles.





Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly golden. Let stand for 2 minutes before removing to cool on a rack.
