Better late than never. Here you go.
SUGAR COOKIE ROLLOUTS
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1-1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
2-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cream butter and sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Mix flour, baking powder and salt; add gradually to butter mixure, stirring constantly. Do not chill the dough. Working in batches on a floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut out cookies using a decorative cookie cutter and bake for 6-7 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Makes about 3 dozen cookies, but the amount depends upon the size of the cookie cutter.
ROYAL ICING
3 egg whites
1-1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
3 to 3-1/2 cups confectioner's sugar
Beat egg whites until foamy, add cream of tartar and whip until peaks form. Add confectioner's sugar. Beat 5 minutes.
That's it. Now go to work and create something wonderful.

Does anyone know how to create a link to a separate printable recipe page? If so, could you please e-mail me? I'd like to make recipes available in a more print-friendly form. Thanks!

Make up a word document, upload it to your blog...wordpress has a place to store them...I don't know about blogger...anyway, then you create a link to that.

That's a link to a blog that I follow that has written a tutorial about making printable pages.
Does your cookie recipe need to rest in the refridgerator before rolling them out and cutting them?
All the sugar cookies I have ever made have needed to rest in the fridge for at least an hour before baking.
Chocolatechic - Thanks, I'm going to investigate the Blogger help site to see if there's anything similar.
Steph - I've printed the instructions out and I'm going to try it.
Anon - Nope. No chilling. I start rolling right away.
Oh how pretty! I had hoped to report that I actually made another gingerbread house this year...I bought the piping bags and special tips after all. Perhaps all is not lost on that score if I made some pretty sugar cookies.
Hope that you have been well, Suzanne. I'm going to return and do plenty of snooping one day soon.
I have missed my visits here, as it's been a rough season caring for my mother and I haven't been online quite as much.
How timely that you are posting a sugar cookie recipe. My son is coming home tomorrow for Christmas, from Chicago, and I plan to make sugar cookies as part of our holiday tradition.
