This rolled cookie dough recipe can be doubled, and it can be refrigerated for up to three days. To freeze wrap in plastic wrap and place in a zip closure freezer bag. Defrost in the refrigerator 24 hours. Be creative and use several of the decorating ideas below.
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 cup soft margarine or butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
Decorating stuff
1. In a large bowl, beat powdered sugar and margarine with an electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with a spoon, until smooth.
2. Break egg into a small bowl and beat slightly with a fork.
3. Add egg to sugar mixture and stir in vanilla extract.
4. Stir in flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar.
5. For best results, cover the dough and refrigerate for about two hours.
6. Preheat oven to 375°F.
7. Lightly flour counter or use a dough board. Place half of dough on surface and form a ball. Rub some flour on the rolling pin and roll dough to about 1/8 inch thickness.
8. Using a Christmas tree cutter cut out several cookies. Place about 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. If using egg yolk paint, decorate before baking.
9. Bake 7 to 8 minutes or until lightly brown. Cool completely before using frosting or glaze to decorate or it will melt.
This is all I know...

you take a christmas tree doesn't matter what kind live or dead fir or pine make sure no one or anything is living in it (The rest stop is not a good place to get trees to many slugs(meow) in them thare trees) You get a good bottle of wine, rum any alcoholic beverage of your choice .You offer a sip to your significant other. Together you proceed to chop your tree into small pieces you get a large pot. You add water you put your tree choppings in the pot let it boil for two hours or until it boils down and becomes like applesauce. You add 4 cups of flour, 2 cups of sugar 5 eggs, 2 tablespoons of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of cinnamon and any other spice you think might go well with a christmas tree. Stir until it becomes the consistency of the pilsbury dough boy if you want you can stir until it looks like the pilsbury dough boy. You then place into a 350 degree preheated oven . You and your significant other then finish your favorite beverage and then watch as you tree grows to the perfect size cookie.Honestly I would ask Betty Crocker
