"'Christmas cutouts signal the season for our family,' relates field editor Dawn Fagerstrom of Warren, Minnesota. 'Usually I 'paint' these with colorful icing - or if time's short, I simply sprinkle them with colored sugar.'"

Directions
- In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add egg and extracts. Combine flour, baking soda and cream of tartar; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Chill for at least 1 hour. On a surface lightly sprinkled with confectioners' sugar, roll out the dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut into desired shapes. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining dough. Bake at 350 degrees F for 7-8 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown.
