COOKIE PRESS COOKIES
|
Ingredients
3 sticks (1 1/2 cups) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, separated
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
chopped nuts
colored sugar
multicolored candies
Method
Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks, flour, salt, and vanilla. Mix well.
Fill cookie press with dough and shape fancy cookies on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush the top of each cookie with the egg whites, beaten slightly with a little water. Decorate or leave plain.
Bake in a preheated 400 degree F oven until the cookies are golden brown on top and done throughout. Test one. Thin cookies take 5 to 6 minutes; thick ones 8 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly, then remove with spatula. When cool, store in airtight container.
Makes 2 to 3 dozen
