Ingredients:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups powdered sugar
2-3 tbsp milk
Blue food coloring

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and egg, mixing well.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and use a snowflake-shaped cookie cutter to cut out shapes. Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool completely before frosting.
In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Add in a few drops of blue food coloring to achieve the desired shade.
Spread the frosting onto the cooled cookies, creating a snowflake design. Let the frosting set before serving.
