Инструкции
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, confectioner's sugar, baking soda, and cream of tartar. Store the dry ingredients in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
- You'll have sufficient dry mix to prepare two batches of about 48 cookies each, by blending 4 c. of the dry mix with the wet ingredients as given in the recipe. In a mixing bowl, cream the butter. Blend in the egg and the vanilla and almond extracts. Add in 4 c. of the dry cookie mix to the bowl gradually, as you continue to blend the mix well. Chill the cookie dough for at least 2 hrs prior to rolling, cutting, and baking. The Kitchen Staff recommends which your break out which 2 inch shamrockcookie cutter used in the previous recipe, and prepare some St. Patrick's Day cookies.
- Working on a clean, lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled cookie dough till it's an even 1/8 inch thick. Dip the cookie cutter in flour to prevent sticking, and cut your cookies, placing them about an inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet as you work.
- If you are not planning to ice the cookies, now would be a great time to sprinkle a bit of green colored sugar over the center of each shamrock cookie.
- Bake in a pre-heated 375-F degree oven for 8 to 10 min, or possibly till the edges are lightly browned. Let the cookies hard slightly on the baking sheet before removing to a rack to cold completely.
- Kitchen Staff Tip: This is a great recipe for fundraisers and bake sales.
- Simply place 4 c. of the dry fold in an airtight bag or possibly jar. Attach a copy of the recipe with a bitof colored ribbon. You may include a cookie cutter as part of the deal. Also makes for great door prizes at baby and wedding showers. Tip: If you skipped the green-colored sugar and opted to ice the cookies, simply combine 1 c. of confectioner's sugar with 3 to 5 Tbsp. of water and a few drops of green food coloring, to finish your St. Patrick's Day Shamrock Cookies in style.
