What is a good & easy cookie recipe?

i want a recipe for a delicious cookie but it doesnt require a lot of ingredients and it should be easy to make also. :]What is a good %26amp; easy cookie recipe?
Viennese Vanilla Cookies





1 cup unsalted butter, softened


1/2 cup sugar


2 cups sifted flour


1 1/4 cups shaved Almonds (not the slivered almonds, but the flat cuts


w/ bits of brown on them)


1 teaspoon vanilla


1/2 teaspoon salt





Confectioner's Sugar for decoration





Cream butter and add sugar. Add 1/2 cup of flour mixing after each addition. Add remaining ingredients. Shape into a disk and then chill for 30 minutes. You can also put the dough in the freezer at this point.





Begin to roll the dough the dough so that it is about 1/4-inch thick or a little more. Cut with cookie cutters. Place dough on parchment paper or a greased cookie sheet. I prefer using parchment paper. It's just easier.





Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Bake for 12 to 13 minutes or until the edges are a bit brown. You may need to lower your oven to 325 degrees F.





You can also freeze or chill the dough in a log shape rather than a disk. If you do this, simply cut small rounds about 1/4 inch thick and place these rounds on the lined cookie sheet. These bake for 15 minutes. (This works well, if you want to transport dough to a friend's house and have kids form the cookies.)





Once the cookies come out of the oven, either cool them on the cookie sheet or move the parchment paper to a cookie rack. As the cookies cool, but before they're fully cooled, sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.





Arrange on a plate and don't blink because they'll disappear before you open your eyes. Eat.What is a good %26amp; easy cookie recipe?

Blend the margarine with the sugar until it is a smooth paste. Add the ginger and flour and blend thoroughly. If it too dry add a teaspoon of water - it should come together in a dough. Roll out on a floured surface and cut out using a cookie cutter. Place on a greased baking sheet in a 200 degree oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
