Frosted, cake-like cookies. To enjoy for special holidays I sprinkle on colored jimmies before the icing dries. Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar |
2 eggs |
1 cup milk |
4 tablespoons baking powder |
1 tablespoon almond extract |
1 pinch salt |
1/2 cup melted shortening |
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 cups confectioners' sugar |
1 tablespoon almond extract |
8 teaspoons water |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Combine 1 cup sugar, 2 eggs and 1 cup milk. Add baking powder, 3 1/2 cups flour, and salt. Then add warmed, melted shortening and almond flavoring.
3. Flour a cookie sheet (no grease) and drop cookie batter from a teaspoon onto sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes. Cookies will be cake-like. Be sure to bake them on center rack.
4. To Make Frosting: Mix together confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon almond flavoring, water and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir and frost cooled cookies.
