1. Make the Cookie Dough
In a bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy.
Mix in egg and vanilla.
Gradually add flour, baking powder, and salt until dough forms.
2. Shape the "Fries"
Roll dough into ½-inch thick rectangles, then cut into thin strips (like fries).
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them apart.
3. Bake to Perfection
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 mins until edges are lightly golden.
Let cool completely.
4. Decorate & Serve
Warm strawberry jam slightly for easy dipping ("ketchup").
Pipe vanilla icing in small lines ("mustard").
Serve in a fry container or paper cone for extra fun!

π₯ Chill dough before cutting – Helps maintain clean edges.
