Ingredients

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1-1/2 cups white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup Irish cream liqueur
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon baking powder

Directions

1. Cream together butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in vanilla and egg yolk until combined, then beat in egg; beat until smooth. Pour in Irish cream, and beat until incorporated.

2. Sift together flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir into butter mixture until evenly mixed. Form into a flattened ball, wrap well with plastic wrap, and refrigerate 2 hours to overnight.

3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

4. Roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness on a floured work surface. Cut into shapes using cookie cutters and place onto prepared baking sheets.

5. Bake in preheated oven until golden brown around the edges, 6 to 8 minutes. Cool on a wire rack until they reach room temperature.
