- Cream butter in large mixer bowl. Add sugar; beat until light and fluffy.

- flour and salt until well blended. Beat in water, a few drops at a time,
- only until dough starts to come away from sides of bowl. Shape dough into
- large flat disk; wrap and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours. Preheat oven to 350F.
- Roll dough on lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut with
- cookie cutters dipped in flour. Place on buttered cookie sheets. Paint

- cookies begin to brown around edges. Carefully remove from cookie sheets.
- Cool completely on wire racks. (Decorate as desired if cookies have not
- been painted.)
-
- Edible Tempera Color - Lightly beat eggs yolks and divide evenly among
- 5 small containers. Use liquid food coloring (adding a few drops at a
- time) to color each mixture as desired. Apply colors with a small clean
- paint brush before baking cookies.
