Title: Cooking Games Santa Claus Cookies

Ingredients:
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– Red and white decorating icing
– Mini chocolate chips
– Mini marshmallows

Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
2. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
3. Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, refrigerate it for 30 minutes to firm up.
6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out circles for the Santa faces.
8. Place the cookie rounds on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden brown.
9. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before decorating.
10. To create Santa’s hat, use the red decorating icing to pipe a triangle shape at the top of each cookie.
11. While the icing is still wet, place a mini marshmallow at the tip of the triangle to resemble the pom-pom.
12. Use the white decorating icing to pipe a fluffy beard at the bottom of the cookie.
13. Add two mini chocolate chips for Santa’s eyes.
14. Pipe a small dot of red icing for his nose.
15. Allow the icing to set before serving and enjoying your adorable Santa Claus cookies!
