Ingredients
1
cup
butter
softened
1/3
cup
powdered sugar
sifted
3/4
cup
corn starch
sifted
1 1/3
cup
flour
sifted
Frosting
2
Tbsp
melted butter
divided in half in 2 bowls (mix your frosting in two bowls and then color it so you have red and green frosting)
1
cup
powdered sugar
divided in half
1
tsp
McCormick pure vanilla extract
divided in half
3
tsp
milk
divided in half (or enough to thin frosting for spreading)
McCormick Food Coloring
Instructions
Cream butter and gradually beat in the powdered sugar (sifted).
Then sift in corn starch and flour gradually, mixing as you add.
Chill one hour in fridge.
Remove from fridge and form small, bite size balls.
Place on parchment lined cookie sheet (or use Silpat mat) and smash down slightly so they are flat and not ball shaped.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes until just starting to brown on the bottom and so the tops no longer feel doughy.
Mix together the frosting ingredients in two separate bowls.
Add red food coloring to one bowl and green food coloring to the other bowl and mix well.
Frost cookies once they are cooled.
Store in an airtight container or freeze for later.
