Entry tags:
Butter cookies
1/2 lb. butter softened to room temp
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups SIFTED flour
Sugar sprinkles, red and green
Combine butter, sugar, vanilla, and egg yolk and beat heavily until thoroughly mixed. Slowly sift in flour. The dough will be thick and heavy; spoon out tablespoons, roll them in a ball, and press them against cookie sheets with your fingers. (Making rude pictures and/or smiley faces in the top of each cookie is optional.) Sprinkle each cookie with a generous heaping of sugar sprinkles. Resist the temptation to eat the leftover dough; it's got egg yolks in it.
Bake at 300 degrees until golden brown - about 20-25 minutes.
