SHORTBREAD SUGAR COOKIES WITH ICING RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I love shortbread and I like sugar cookies but a cookie that is both...that's heaven! This is the kind of icing that "dries" and makes almost like a candy shell on the cookie. When the icing is dry, store in an airtight container for up to a week. You can also keep the unbaked dough in the fridge for up to a week...but who can resist making these that long? You have to use butter to get the right taste. Sometimes just for a different flavor I add a teaspoon or two of almond extract.
Total Time 50 minutes
Prep Time 40 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Yield 4-5 dozen cookies, 48-60 serving(s)
Number Of Ingredients 9
Steps:
- Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or generously spray with non stick spray.
- Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, mix butter and sugar until fluffy. Add vanilla and beat until combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking powder. Add slowly to butter mixture on low speed. Do not overbeat! Only mix until flour is incorporated.
- Form dough into big ball and place in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Roll out chilled dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with cookie cutter or you can use a pizza cutter and make squares or rectangles. Another option is to roll into a log and cut 1/4 inch thick slices.
- Using a spatula, transfer to cookie sheets leaving about 1/2 inch between cookies.
- Bake 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Cool 10 minutes on cookie sheet and then transfer to cooling rack.
- When cookies are cool, whisk together the icing ingredients and either dip the cookies or spread on cookies. You can smooth the icing with the back of a spoon.
- These are so good -- you should really double the recipe!
