Yield:  Makes 4 dozen large cookies
RECIPE INGREDIENTS
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
Sift flour, sugar and baking powder in medium bowl. Line large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Blend oil, eggs and vanilla in food processor. With machine running, slowly add sifted ingredients. Using on/off turns, pulse until dough begins to form a ball. A humid or rainy day may require additional flour. Add no more than 1/4 cup.

Transfer dough to floured work surface; form ball. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces. Let rest 10 minutes.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Roll out 1 dough piece on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thickness. Using assorted cookie cutters, cut dough. Transfer cookies to prepared baking sheet, spacing 1 inch apart. Bake until cookies are golden brown around edges, about 12 minutes.

NOTE: If you wish to decorate the cookies with colored sugar or sprinkles, press them into the dough with a flat spatula or brush the tops with an egg wash, then decorate the cookies and bake them. To prepare an egg wash, mix 1 egg plus a teaspoon of cold water together in a one-cup measure. Remove and cool on a baking rack. Store in an airtight container.
