1 cup butter, room temperature

1 cup icing (powdered) sugar

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

2 tablespoons pure vanilla

1/2 cup icing, homemade or store-bought

Preheat oven to 325F.
In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and icing sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Turn the mixer to low and add the flour and mix until just combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the vanilla and mix to combine.
Place the dough on a lightly floured work surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use a cookie cutter of your choice (we recommend this bunny, of course!) to cut out as many cookies as you can from the dough.
Carefully transfer to a parchment lined cookie sheet and place about 1/2" apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the cookies are lightly golden brown around the edges.
Remove from oven and transfer to wire racks to cool.
Using either homemade or store-bought icing, add bunny tails to the cookies. You can even use the icing as glue to attach a bigger cookie or piece of candy as the tail to mix things up!
