Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • food coloring (optional)
  • colored crystal sugar

Directions:

  1. In a bowl, combine sugar and butter; beat until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Stir together dry ingredients; gradually add to creamed mixture until completely blended. Chill for 30 minutes.
