Recipe for Italian Butter Cookies

Ingredients

  • 2-1/2 cups of all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 12 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons Crisco

Cooking Directions

Combine butter, sugar, cream, egg yolks, vanilla, and Crisco in a mixing bowl. Beat until creamy. Add flour, cornstarch, and baking powder and continue mixing until fully blended.

Roll out ¼” thick, if dough is sticky, add some flour.
Use cookie cutters to cut appropriate shapes.
Decorate with sprinkles or other candies.

Bake 400 for 5-8 minutes or until lightly golden brown.

Note: These are not sugar cookies so you do not ice them and decorate after they are baked; rather you decorate before you bake them and do not ice.
