INSTRUCTIONS

BUTTER CREAM FROSTING
* (2 cups loosely packed)
Children will love these-they are fun to make and to eat. Adults will also
find them irresistible.
Preheat oven to 375°.
In large bowl, with mixer at low speed, beat egg yolks and milk until well
blended. Add flour, sugar, butter, vanilla and salt; beat ingredients until
just mixed. Increase speed to medium and beat 2 minutes, occasionally
scraping bowl. Divide dough in half.
On floured pastry cloth, with lightly floured stockinette- covered rolling
pin, roll one dough half 1/8-inch thick. With 2 1/4-inch fluted-edged
cookie cutter, cut dough into rounds; with 1/2-inch round cutter, cut out
centers from half of rounds. Reserve the dough scraps.
Using a pancake turner, place rounds 1/2-inch apart on un- greased cookie
sheets; bake at 375° 8-10 minutes until lightly browned. With pancake
turner, remove cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
Repeat cutting and baking with second half of dough, rerolling scraps.
Prepare frosting: In the bowl of an electric mixer, place all frosting
ingredients (except food color) and beat at low speed for 2 minutes. Scrape
sides of bowl and continue beating at high speed for 6 minutes. Divide
frosting into thirds and tint with food color.
On bottom side of cookie without a hole, spread teaspoonful of either
green, pink or yellow frosting; top with a cookie with a hole in it to make
a "sandwich." Repeat with remaining cookies and frosting. (Use any leftover
frosting for graham crackers or cupcakes.)
Yield: about 42 sandwich cookies. Larry Rosenberg, author of Muffins &
