Directions: |
Directions:1. Make cookies: Use an electric mixer to cream butter and sugars until smooth. Mix in eggs and vanilla until combined.
2. Use a fine-mesh sieve to sift flour, baking soda and salt into a medium mixing bowl. Add flour mixture, in two parts, to butter-sugar mixture, mixing until just combined. Add remaining ingredients and mix at low speed until just combined.
3. Cover and chill dough in refrigerator at least 2 hours or overnight. (If you leave it overnight, let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.)
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Use a tablespoon measure to scoop dough balls and place them on a baking sheet. Use your palm to flatten dough balls slightly. Bake until set, about 12 minutes. Take care not to over bake. Remove from oven and let cool before frosting.
5. Make frosting: Use an electric mixer to cream butter and sugar until smooth. Add remaining ingredients, mixing until incorporated.
6. Frost cookies: Use a broad butter knife to frost cookies. Let frosting set for 1 hour. |
