THIN POWDERED SUGAR ICING
* Use real butter or stick margarine NOT SPREAD. Do not substitute reduced
fat spread, their higher water content often yields less-satisfactory
results.
These are soft cookies and are great for decorating or holidays.
COOKIES: With an electric mixer of wooden spoon, cream sugar and butter
together until creamy. Add egg, vanilla, almond, flour, baking soda and
cream of tartar. Mix until thoroughly combined. Chill this dough at least 3
hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out dough 1/8-inch thick and cut
cookies into shapes, then bake 8 to 10 minutes. Cool the cookies and coat
with icing. Makes 4 to 5 dozen cookies.
ICING: Mix the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth.
