Step 1

In a large bowl, add flour, baking powder, and salt, and whisk together to combine.

Step 2

In the bowl of an electric mixer, add butter and sugar and beat together on medium-high speed until soft and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition and scraping down the bowl as needed. Add vanilla and mix until just combined.

Step 4

Add dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined and no flour pockets remain.

Step 5

Cover dough with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.

Step 6

Move the oven rack to the middle position, and preheat to 350˚ F.

Step 7

Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set them aside.

Step 8

Scoop 3 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Place on prepared cookie sheets and flatten ball slightly with the palm of the hand. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing cookies at least 2-3 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake one cookie sheet at a time and bake about 10-12 minutes or just until set, and do not overbake! The edges of the cookies will be lightly browned.

Step 10

Cool cookies on cookie sheet for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.

Step 11

Add powdered sugar, melted butter, vanilla, and milk in a medium bowl.

Step 12

Whisk until smooth, whisk in additional milk as necessary, 1 teaspoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

Step 13

Color with pink food coloring if desired.

Step 14

Frost cookies by adding a dollop of frosting to the center of the cookie, and use offset spatula or spoon to smooth out to edges.

Step 15

If frosting begins to thicken as you decorate, continue to whisk in very small amounts of milk to keep it workable.

Step 16

Top with sprinkles if desired.

Step 17

Let frosting set for 2 hours before storing.

Step 18

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 4-5 days.
