Sugar cookies in the shape of a fox that are as much fun to decorate as they are to eat!

Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened. 3/4 cup granulated sugar. 1 large egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Red and white icing for decorating.

Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use fox-shaped cookie cutters to cut out the cookie shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Once the cookies are completely cooled, use red icing to create the fox's body and white icing for the face details. Let the icing set before serving or storing.
