Prep Time: 30 minutes
Chill: 1 hour
Cook Time: 8 minutes per batch
Makes 30 (2 cookie) servings
Ingredients:
1 cup butter or margarine*, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons McCormick® Cream of Tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
Glaze:
3 to 4 teaspoons milk
1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar
McCormick® Assorted Food Colors & Egg Dye
OR McCormick® Assorted NEON! Food Colors & Egg Dye
Directions:
1. Cream butter for 30 seconds in a large mixer bowl. Blend in
sugar, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Mix
in as much of the flour as possible with mixer. Use a wooden spoon to stir in
any remaining flour.
2. Cover and chill 1 hour or until dough is firm. Preheat oven to
375°F. Shape dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on ungreased
cookie sheet.
3. Bake 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly brown. Transfer
to wire rack; let cool. Decorate with colored glaze as desired. Allow glaze
to set up or dry before storing in airtight container.
4. To prepare the glaze: Combine milk and vanilla extract; stir
in confectioners' sugar. Adjust the consistency as needed by adding a bit more
water to thin or more confectioners' sugar to stiffen. Blend in 3 to 4 drops
food color until evenly distributed and glaze is smooth. If desired, divide
the icing among separate small bowls and tint each one with a different color
by stirring in 1 to 2 drops food color.
*Use regular, full fat butter or margarine for best results.
