READY IN:25mins |
SERVES:20 |
YIELD:80 Cookies |
UNITS:US |
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3⁄4 lb salted butter, softened
- 1 3⁄4 cups sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 1⁄2 cups flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar, Red, green, multi-colored (appox.)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar. Add the yolks and vanilla, mixing well. Add the flour and mix thoroughly.
- Use mounded teaspoonfuls and make balls of dough with your hands. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet, then flatten the dough with the bottom of a patterned glass dipped in colored sugar (don't mix the red and green!).
- Bake for about 10 minutes (watch carefully as they burn easily), until the cookies are lightly golden just around the edges. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheets for a minute or two and then gently transfer to baking racks to cool -- they're fragile.
