Mom has made these cookies for years and passed down the recipe to me this last year. I started at halloween, but they make cookie cutters for almost every holiday. These pink Valentines Day cookies were the original sugar cookie in our house growing up :)
Recipe:
-1 cup butter melted
-1 egg
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-1 teaspoon almond extract
-2 1/4 cups of flour
-1 teaspoon baking soda
-1 teaspoon cream of tartar-1 cup powdered sugar
-2 tablepoons milk
-2 tablespoons corn syrup
-Food coloring for desired color/s
Mix all of wet ingredients for cookies in bowl of mixer. Add in powdered sugar, flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar and mix until dough forms. Using a floured rolling pin, roll dough out onto counter and cut desired shapes into the dough. Transfer onto baking sheets and bake for 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Let cookies cool on cooling racks. Once completely cool, mix ingredients for frosting in a small mixing bowl. Frost each cookie with a spatula and sprinkle with sprinkles!
