Sugar cookies (Soet Koekies)

My knight is wanting to earn some extra money for a lego set he has his eye on, so we have decided to make biscuits to sell at dads work - they are being very well recieved and my knight is excited about earning his own money (with a little - read alot - help from mom)
We are very proud of his efforts...

You will need - 

125ml butter - softened

250ml sugar

1 egg

30ml milk

2,5ml vanilla

2 cups flour

10ml baking powder

2,5ml salt

sugar for sprinkling on top

(cherries for top if desired)

Beat the softened butter, gradually adding the sugar - 
once combined add the egg, milk and vanilla.

Mix well.

Add the sifted flour, baking powder and salt.

Roll the dough out on a floured surface and using a cookie cutter cut into shapes.

Place on a greased baking sheet and sprinkle the cookies with sugar.

Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for about 8 minutes  
(please check as oven temps differ!)
