For the plain butter cookies, mix the flour with the baking powder, crumble the cold butter with the flour. Add the remaining ingredients and quickly knead everything into a smooth dough.
Let the dough rest in a cool place for about 30 minutes.
Then roll out on a floured work surface and cut out cookies with different motifs.
Preheat the oven to 180 °C and bake the plain butter cookies for about 10-12 minutes.
