Instructions
- Cream butter, then gradually add ½ cup powdered sugar
- Beat in egg yolk, brandy and vanilla.
- Combine dry ingredients, then stir into butter mixture being careful not to over mix.
- Form into the shape of your choice (e.g. slightly flattened ovals, rounds, or crescents) then bake at 350 on ungreased cookie sheet until just starting to turn golden, about 15-20 minutes.
- Mix brandy and powdered sugar (I used my fingers). Let the cookies rest until cool enough to handle but still warm. Roll in the powdered sugar then generously cover sides and top with additional powdered sugar.
- Let rest until fully cool, then store at room temperature in airtight container.
