-------- ------------ --------------------------------

--Cookie Ingredients--

1 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter -- softened

1 cup sugar

1 egg

2 tablespoons milk

1 tablespoon vanilla

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

--Glaze Ingredients--

2 1/2 cups powdered sugar

2 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon LAND O LAKES® Butter -- softened

1 tablespoon light corn syrup

1/2 teaspoon vanilla -- if desired

Food color -- if desired

Decorator candies -- sugars, etc., if desired

 

 

Combine 1 cup butter, sugar and egg in large mixer bowl. Beat at medium speed,

until creamy (1 to 2 minutes). Add milk and 1 tablespoon vanilla. Continue

beating, scraping bowl often, until well mixed (1 to 2 minutes). Reduce speed to

low. Add flour and baking powder; beat, scraping bowl often, until well mixed (1

to 2 minutes).

 

 

Divide dough in thirds. Shape each third into a ball on plastic food wrap. Wrap

in plastic food wrap; flatten to 1/2 inch. Refrigerate until firm (2 to 3

hours).

 

Heat oven to 400°F. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface, one-third at a

time (keeping remaining dough refrigerated), to 1/8 to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut

with cookie cutters. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 6

to 10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool completely.

 

 

Combine powdered sugar, water, 1 tablespoon butter, corn syrup and 1/2 teaspoon

vanilla in small mixer bowl; mix until powdered sugar is moistened. Beat at

medium speed until smooth, adding additional water if necessary, to reach

desired glazing consistency. Tint with food color, if desired.

 

Glaze cooled cookies. Add decorator candies, if desired. Let stand until glaze

is hardened (6 hours or overnight).

 

Yield: 3 dozen (2-inch) cookies
