Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 tbsp margarine
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 3 3/8 tsp skim milk
  • 1/8 tsp vanilla (additional to taste)
  • 1 1/2 tsp light corn syrup

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Beat margarine and sugar until well mixed, adding egg white and vanilla as you go.
  3. Whisk baking powder, flour, tartar, and salt in another bowl. Mix bit-by-bit into egg mixture, not adding any more if the dough is too thick.
  4. Knead dough 3-5 times on heavily floured surface until smooth and at your desired consistency.
  5. Roll dough out on the heavily floured surface with a floured rolling pin, and cut shapes out. Place them on a cookie sheet, covered in parchment paper. (Don't sub the parchment paper for oil, butter, or cooking spray. Bottoms will crisp).
  6. Bake in oven for 7-10 minutes until tops of cookies have firmed, checking every few minutes to make sure they don’t brown (these are best light and soft).
  7. Take out of oven and place on cooling rack.
  8. While cooling, mix powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Beat in corn syrup and vanilla until shiny.
  9. Add food colouring to icing if you wish, and ice the cookies once they have cooled. ENJOY!
