These are always on our list of Christmas cookies to bake. Not only do they look pretty, they taste great! Ingredients:
1 cup margarine |
2 cups flour |
1/2 cup half-and-half |
1/2 cup butter |
2 -3 cups powdered sugar |
1 egg yolk |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
food coloring, of choice |
Directions:
1. Mix margarine and flour until crumbly.
2. Gradually add half and half.
3. Roll out dough and cut with a 1 1/2 inch cutter. (Simple shapes like circles and stars work easiest).
4. Dip in granulated sugar.
5. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-9 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, melt the butter and mix with the yolk, vanilla, and gradually add in the powdered sugar. You can divide this into separate bowls if you want more than one color of frosting.
7. Spread frosting between cooled cookies.
