These dainty cookies magically melt in your mouth when you eat them, they are perfect for a shower or luncheon.
Beat butter and other ingredients until creamy.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes, let cool and frost.
(Note, I think these work best when the butter is almost entirely melted, if your dough comes out crumbly add a little milk to get a creamy consistency.
They also usually have a rather runny frosting drizzled on top, but I made mine a little thicker so I could pipe it, and I also added some almond extract to the frosting which I think lent itself well to these cookies.
FROSTING
To make the frosting, soften the butter, add the other liquids, and slowly beat in powdered sugar one cup at a time. You may need to add more or less powdered sugar or milk, depending on the consistency you want the frosting to be.
Also note, these cookies are very small, I used about a teaspoons worth of dough for each one -give or take- (no actual measuring as the dough is sticky and will stick to a cookie scoop.) Enjoy!
