Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
3 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups butter - room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup finely ground candy canes
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs plus 1egg yolk
Directions:
Directions:
350º
8-10 minutes

Mix together flour and salt.

Using food processor grind candy canes to fine sugar consistency.

Using electric mixer, beat butter, sugar and candy cane sugar together until fluffy (about 4-5 minutes).

Add eggs, egg yolk and vanilla, beat to combine.

Add flour a bit at a time until all the flour is combined.

Seperate into 2 or 3 even pieces, wrap in plastic wrap and chill in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350º Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat.

Dust cookie cutters with flour before cutting shapes from dough. (It was necessary for me to use flour in the parchment paper to roll out the dough.)

Transfer to baking sheet. Place baking sheet into refrigerator for 10 minutes toi chill the dough again. This will prevent cookies from spreading so they keep the nice sharp edges.

Bake 350º for 8-10 minutes (just until edges start to brown)

Cool completely. Decorate with royal icing or a peppermint glaze with crushed candy canes on top.
