- ½ lb butter 2 sticks softened but not melted
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 ½ cup flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F.
- Cream butter and sugar together, add in eggs and vanilla and beat until creamy. I like using a hand mixer.
- Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to creamed butter mixture. Divide dough into three and add red food dye to one, green food dye to another, and leave the last one plain.
