we make these around christmas almost every year. rolling out the dough can be labor intensive but very worth it.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups flour
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
food coloring (optional)
Directions:
1. Mix together the dough ingredients, cover, chill.
2. Roll dough thin onto a floured dishcloth. Don't wait for it to get warm or it doesn't work.
3. Cut into circles about 1 1/2 inch diameter.
4. Dip circles in sugar and poke with a fork 4 times (its what makes them look like buttons!).
5. Bake at 375 degrees for 7 to 9 minutes.
6. Mix together the filling and fill 2 cookies to make sandwiches - putting the pan sides together.
