Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Place butter and sugar in large bowl of electric stand mixer and beat until light in color.
Add egg and milk and beat to combine. Put mixer on low speed, gradually add flour, and beat until mixture pulls away from the side of the bowl. Divide the dough in half, wrap in waxed paper, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Sprinkle surface where you will roll out dough with powdered sugar.
Remove 1 wrapped pack of dough from refrigerator at a time, sprinkle rolling pin with powdered sugar, and roll out dough to 1/4-inch thick. Move the dough around and check underneath frequently to make sure it is not sticking. If dough has warmed during rolling, place cold cookie sheet on top for 10 minutes to chill.
Cut into desired shape, place at least 1-inch apart on greased baking sheet, parchment, or silicone baking mat, and bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until cookies are just beginning to turn brown around the edges, rotating cookie sheet halfway through baking time.
Let sit on baking sheet for 2 minutes after removal from oven and then move to complete cooling on wire rack.
Serve as is or ice as desired. Store in airtight container for up to 1 week.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Madeira, Prosecco, Port, Moscato Dasti
Cream Sherry, Madeira, and Prosecco are my top picks for Sugar Cookies. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. You could try Ste Chapelle Special Harvest Riesling. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 15 dollars per bottle.

Ste Chapelle Special Harvest Riesling
Aromas of fresh sliced peaches, apricots and citrus give way to flavors of honey, peaches, and orange peel. The wine is sweet but well balanced with crisp acidity and a long finish of honey anf fruit.
