Directions:Cookies:
Mix together flour, salt, and baking powder. Cut 1 cup of the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the cream and form the dough into a ball. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Dust a cutting board with the sugar/flour mixture. Roll dough out a third of the dough at a time to 1/8-inch thick and cut with a 1 1/2” circle cutter. Place circles on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Prick cookies three times with a fork, or gently just stamp (don't cut) with a shaped cookie cutter.
Bake at 375°F for 8-11 minutes until lightly browned on the edges. Let cookies cool before frosting.
Frosting:
Beat 1/2 cup butter until fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and beat until creamy. Beat in the vanilla and the 1 -1/2 Tablespoon cream. Adjust cream and powdered sugar until frosting gets to a nice spreading consistency. Add food coloring, if desired. Scoop frosting into a sandwich or quart size zip top bag, and cut about a ¼ inch tip off.
Squeeze some frosting onto the bottoms of half of the cookies and place the remaining cookies on top to make sandwich cookies. |
