Steps:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, vanilla, butter flavoring, and almond extract and mix until incorporated.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt. With the mixer on low, incorporate the flour mixture in two additions, scraping the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Mix just until incorporated. Form the dough into a disc, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
- Remove the dough from the fridge and set out at room temperature for 20 minutes. Position two oven racks close together in the center of the oven and preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Separate the dough into four sections and roll each out separately to 1/8 inch thick. Dip cookie cutter in flour and cut animal shapes out of the dough. Place cookies 1 inch apart on the parchment-lined sheets and bake until lightly golden on the edges, approximately 10-12 minutes. Cool completely on wire rack.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 10-second intervals in the microwave or place over a double boiler. Using a fork, dip each cookie in the chocolate until completely coated. (Once you're halfway through the cookies, add food coloring to the chocolate to the desired pinkness and finish coating the cookies.) Place on parchment paper, sprinkle with nonpareils, and let dry.
- For quicker drying or if you live somewhere warm, like me, place cookies in the fridge to dry. Cookies will keep stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days. I kept mine in the fridge to keep them safe from the warm weather we've been having here.

CIRCUS ANIMAL COOKIES WITH ICING
My son loves the store-bought circus animal cookies, but the ingredient list scares me a little, since they contain wax and other chemicals. This recipe is a delicious variation that makes cookies that look just like the ones in the store but taste much better.

Steps:
- Place butter in a large bowl and cream using an electric mixer for 3 minutes. Add confectioners' sugar and mix until incorporated. Add each egg individually to the creamed butter, scraping the sides of the bowl if needed. Add vanilla extract and mix for 3 more minutes.
- Sift flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar together in a bowl. Add flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed. Cover and chill the dough until it is workable, 2 to 4 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Roll dough out onto a work surface and cut using small animal-shaped cookie cutters. Place cookies on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack until crisp, 7 to 9 minutes. Let cool completely before icing, about 45 minutes.
- Mix 2 cups confectioners' sugar, half-and-half, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Divide icing and add pink food coloring to 1 half. Dip cookies in icing and decorate with sprinkles quickly before icing dries. Place cookies on a rack to let icing dry to a shiny finish.

CIRCUS ANIMAL SUGAR COOKIES
I got the inspiration for this cookie from a bakery in Santa Monica, California, called Cookie Good. The first time I tried it, it was like I was being transported back to my childhood when I would eat Mother's Circus Animal Cookies by the handful. After not being able to visit the bakery anymore, I decided to recreate it at home. My take utilizes a basic sugar cookie dough that is studded with rainbow sprinkles, then topped with a frosted circus animal cookie while still warm to allow it to melt into the sugar cookie and prevent it from falling off.

Steps:
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter, shortening and sugar for 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla and stir until well combined. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, then add them to the butter-and-sugar mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together. Fold in the sprinkles, cover with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- Using a small cookie scoop (about 1 1/2 tablespoons), portion out the dough into balls and roll between the palms of your hands, placing 6 on each of the prepared baking sheets. Make sure to leave about 2 to 3 inches of space in between to allow the cookies to spread while baking.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and immediately place 1 frosted circus animal cookie on the center of each cookie, pressing down slightly. Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Allow the baking sheets to cool completely, then repeat with the remaining dough and circus animal cookies. The cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

- Place butter in the bowl of an electric stand mixer or use a medium bowl and electric hand-mixer. Beat butter for 30-60 seconds until creamy. Add the powdered sugar and beat again just until creamy and well-combined. Add the egg and vanilla. Beat again just until combined. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt all at once and beat on low speed just until dough starts to come together, 1-2 minutes. It's okay if there is some unincorporated flour. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl and finish mixing dough with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula.
- Turn dough out onto a large square of plastic wrap or waxed paper and use the sides of the wrap or paper to pull the dough together into a ball. Flatten into a disk that is about 1-inch in thickness. Wrap well and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- When ready to bake cookies, remove dough from fridge and let stand for a few minutes at room temperature to make it easier to roll. Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using two pieces of parchment paper or a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a large rectangle or oval that is about 1/4-inch thick. Using the small cookie cutters, cut the dough into animal shapes and transfer to the prepared baking sheets.

- Using a food processor, crush the entire package of cookies, pulsing until it is a fine powdered crumble.
- Cut the cream cheese in chunks and add it into the cookie crumble mixture. Mix until the crumble and cream cheese forms a ball of soft dough.
- Spoon or scoop the dough, and roll into equal size 1-1 ½ inch balls. I think this is easiest using a small spring-loaded cookie dough scoop.
- Place each ball on a piece of parchment paper, repeating until all of the dough is used. Place the cookie balls in the refrigerator or freezer to cool for about 20 minutes. This will make it easier to dip them in the candy coating.

- Normally our Best Sugar Cookie Recipe doesn't need to be refrigerated before baking. But this time we did cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours for this recipe. The Mini Christmas Cutters are small and we wanted to make sure the shapes came out cleanly with sharp edges. Chilling the dough really helped in this regard.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven for 4-5 minutes. Check on the cookies at the 4 minute mark. You don't want them to over-bake. Allow the cookies to cool.
