1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat over to 400º.
Cream together the butter/margarine and sugar. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine baking powder and flour then add to the creamed mixture 1 cup at a time.
Do not chill the dough!
Divide into 2 balls. Roll out on a floured surface about 12" in diameter and 1/8" thick. Dip cutter in flour before each use. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet, middle rack, for 6-10 minutes or until lightly browned.
As soon as the cookie comes out of the oven, poke a hole in the center with the skewer. Let them cool completely, then decorate. Let the frosting dry, then place one gumdrop on the skewer just low enough to fit the cookie and one more gumdrop (see photo). Once decorated and dried, place one cookie at a time into a pot, jar, or whatever you want to place them in to display.

Personal Notes:
This recipe comes from Pat Beckstead. She was an amazing woman, with gumption, that loved everyone. She quickly became Grandma Pat to our family. We loved to make cookie bouquets, gingerbread houses, and candy trains with her.
