Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups butter softened
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 12 oz White candy melts
  • 12 oz Pink candy melts
  • Easter sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400° (when you are ready to start baking.)
  • In a large bowl cream together your butter and sugar.
  • Once creamed together, add in your eggs, one at a time while continuing to beat the dough.
  • While your dough is continuing to mix add in vanilla.
  • Add in your flour a little at a time with breaks occasionally to make sure that everything mixes together.
  • Once your flower is fully incorporated, add in your baking powder and salt.
  • Using your hands, form your dough into a large bowl. Wrap plastic wrap around it and refrigerate for at least four hours, if not overnight.
  • When you are ready to bake, preheat your oven to 400°.
  • On a lightly floured flat surface roll your dough out to 1/4 inch thick. I suggest portioning your dough ball into four sections unless you have a large flat surface area to work on.
