Create enchanting and delicious ballerina sugar cookies that are perfect for themed parties or simply to indulge your sweet cravings.

Ingredients: 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar. 1 large egg. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Food coloring optional. Edible glitter optional.

Instructions: Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl with a whisk. In a different large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until they are fluffy and light. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix them in well. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just combined. If you want to use food coloring, split the dough into pieces and knead them together until the color is even. Roll the dough into a disc, cover it with plastic wrap, and put it in the fridge for at least an hour. Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on baking sheets. Roll out the chilled dough to about 1/4 inch thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut shapes out of cookie dough with ballerina-themed cutters and place them on baking sheets that have been made ready. After the oven is hot, bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden. After baking, let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets. Then, move them to a wire rack to cool completely. You can add edible glitter to the cookies after they have cooled if you want to. Have fun with these sweet ballerina sugar cookies!
