Ingredients
- 1/2 cup salted butter (room temperature)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons white sugar (for sprinkling on top)
For the frosting:
- 1/4 cup butter (room temperature)
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/2 teaspoons heavy whipping cream
- Food Coloring
Instructions
Make the cookies:
- In a small bowl, beat the butter, flour and cream. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to about 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a small floured cookie cutter in circles or whatever shape you'd like.
- Place 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Sprinkle the tops with sugar, either white or colored. Prick each cookie 3-4 times with a fork.
- Bake at 375° Fahrenheit for 7-8 minutes. Allow the cookies to rest on the pans for 3-5 minutes, then move to wire racks to cool completely.
Make the frosting:
- Use a hand mixer to combine the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla and enough cream to get a nice, spreadable consistency.
- Use food coloring to tint the frosting whatever color you'd like.
- Carefully spread the frosting on the bottom of half of the cookies, then top with remaining cookies.
- Store in an airtight container.
Notes
- If you are having trouble handling the tender dough, roll the dough into a log about 1 1/4" in diameter, wrap in waxed paper and refrigerate the dough for one hour. Then slice with sharp knife or use dental floss to easily slice through. No cutter needed!
- This recipe yields different amounts depending on how big your cookie cutters are. The smaller the cookie cutter, the better!
- The calories shown are based on the recipe making, with 1 serving being 1 cookie sandwich.
