Ingredients:
1 stick butter/margarine, slightly melted (equals 1/2 cup)
1/2 cup date sugar (really, this is ground up dates)
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 Tbsp. milk
1 & 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
Directions:
Mix together the butter, sugar, egg, vanilla, and milk until creamy. Then add the flour and baking powder until a dough forms. (Keep in mind that these are not as sweet as "regular" sugar cookies, and will be a bit brown in color because of the date sugar). Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough until about 1/4 of an inch thick. Use whatever cookie cutters you have on hand. Place shapes on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
