Old Town Vanilla Buttercream Cookies Recipe

Old Town Vanilla Buttercream Cookies Notes

I wrote this recipe especially for the Spice House's Oldtown Spiced Sugar! They've been compared to snicker doodles--but better.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 cup butter
• 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
• 1 egg
• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Chicago Old Town Spiced Sugar

Serves / Yields

3 dozen

Preparation Instructions

In a large bowl, beat powdered sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla.

Sift together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt. Add to butter mixture and stir until blended.

Refrigerate dough 1 hour or until firm.

Shape dough into one-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Flatten with cookie press. Sprinkle generously with Old Town Spiced Sugar.

Bake at 350 F for 5-8 minutes, until set, being careful not to overbake.

Helpful Hints

If you don't have a cookie press, any greased, flat surface will work.
