COOKIES IN YELLOW BAG RECIPES

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients for cookies in a large mixing bowl by hand until it is relatively smooth.(a few small clumps here and there will be ok, the will disappear in backing).
• With floured hands pinch a small amount of "dough" and roll into a ball.(they should be a little smaller then a ping-pong ball, about 1-11/2 inch) Place on ungreased cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart.
• When your cookie sheet is full dip the bottom of a glass jar or a tablespoon in flour and gently press down on the dough balls.(1/4 inch thick).
• bake 7-9 minutes @ 350 degrees until a slight golden brown around edges.
• *please note that these cookies will be pretty soft in the center when you take them out so this next step is important.they can not be baked longer because it will make the cookie to dark.
• let each tray sit 5 minutes before transferring them to a sheet of aluminum foil dusted with powdered sugar(its so the moisture from the cookies doest cause the cookie to stick, if you want you can use flour instead.).
• after they are cool you can ice them and top off with the sprinkles.
• Frosting:.
• *if using two or more flavors of drink mix you will need to divide your cream cheese frosting into the appropriate number of small bowls.
• Start stirring in small amounts of of the powdered mix. stir completely before adding more. test for taste. add more if wanted a stronger tatse.
• ice cookies and top with your choice of toppings.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat until smooth. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture, mixing just until combined.
• Drop dough by heaping tablespoons, about 2 inches apart, onto two large baking sheets; flatten slightly with floured fingertips. Bake until edges are golden, 14 to 16 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer cookies immediately to a wire rack; let cool completely.
