Fancy Français Sugar Cookies

1 1/2 cup white flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 teaspoon salt
1 stick (or 1/2 cup) Earth Balance
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 egg replacer (I like to use 11/2 tsp flax)
Optional: 1/3 cup soy milk

1: Preheat oven to 375ºF
2: Very thoroughly mix all ingredients together, dry ingredients first, then wet ingredients.  Continue by adding soy milk (or water) one teaspoon at a time until mixture sticks together when squeezed (but is still a little bit crumbly).
3: Roll the batter out and create shapes using cookie cutters or do as I did and cut into squares with a pizza cutter.
4: Bake on a non-greased cookie sheet for 7-8 minutes.  Watch the time; remove from oven when slightly browned on the bottom.
