Let's Get to Baking with the Following Instructions
Now that we have all of our ingredients, lets start baking!
First, take your sugar and butter and combine in a mixing bowl. Begin to beat the mixture until creamy. Now, add the egg yolks and vanilla extract. Continue to beat the mixture while scraping the edges of the bowl when needed. Gradually add flour and salt. Beat at a low speed until well mixed together and a dough has formed!
Once you have your cookie dough, cover the bowl and leave the mixture in a refrigerator for 1 hour until firm. While waiting preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Once your dough is firm, roll only half of the dough out at a time, leaving the other half in the refrigerator to firm. Spread the dough till it is about ¼ inches thick. Continue to cut your dough out using your choice of cookie cutter shapes! Repeat with the other half of your dough. Finally place on ungreased baking sheets.
Place in your heated oven and proceed to bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Once fully cooked, take the cookies out of the oven and let them cool before frosting and decorating. Once decorated your cookies are perfect to eat!
