Christmas Cutouts Recipe

In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add egg and extracts. Combine flour, baking soda and cream of tartar; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Chill for 2-3 hours. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut into desired shapes. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 7-8 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Cool on a wire rack. For frosting, beat sugar, butter and vanilla in a bowl. Gradually stir in milk until smooth and thick; add food coloring if desired. Frost cookies. Yield: 5 dozen (2-inch cookies).
