Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
  3. Add the Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  4. Mix in the Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour and salt to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Prepare the Piping Bag: Transfer the cookie dough to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. If desired, add a few drops of food coloring to the dough to create vibrant cookies.
  6. Pipe the Cookies: Pipe the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming desired shapes such as swirls, stars, or rosettes. Leave some space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
  7. Decorate (Optional): If using sprinkles, gently press them onto the piped cookies before baking to ensure they stick.
  8. Bake and Cool: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, serve these delightful butter piped cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage. They also make wonderful gifts for friends and family during the holidays or special occasions.
