Easy Easter Biscuits Recipe

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add vanilla extract and milk to the flour mixture. Stir until a soft dough forms. If desired, divide the dough into different bowls and add a few drops of food coloring to each portion.

Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutters to cut out Easter-inspired shapes and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.

If desired, decorate the biscuits with sprinkles before baking.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
