Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking these delightful cookies.

Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Incorporate the eggs and vanilla extract into the butter mixture. Mix well until everything is combined and the batter is fluffy.

Whisk the all-purpose flour and baking powder together in another bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients.

Scoop the dough using a cookie scoop or spoon and drop it onto lined baking sheets, ensuring to leave space between each.

Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn a lovely golden brown.

Cool your cookies on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Decorate your cooled cookies with icing and a generous sprinkle of colorful decorations.
