Given to me by an aunt that made the most delicious Christmas cookies I have ever tasted! Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 cup shortening |
1 cup white sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
2 eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
2 tablespoons water |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Mix together flour, shortening, white sugar, baking powder and eggs. Stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla and salt.
2. Refrigerate dough for easier roll-out. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 8-10 minutes (watch carefully). Add glaze to cooled cookies.
3. To Make Glaze: Mix 1 cup confectioners' sugar, water (to desired consistency), 1/2 tsp. vanilla and preferred food color for cookie icing. Decorate with favorite sprinkles.
