Time 1h15m

Yield 38

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 cup powdered sugar
3 to 5 teaspoons milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup grated white chocolate baking bar (about 1 oz from 4-oz package)
76 white vanilla baking chips, tips cut off (about 1/4 cup)
76 mini semisweet chocolate chips (about 2 teaspoons)
19 small round chocolate-covered creamy mints, cut in half
1 pouch (7 oz) Betty Crocker™ Cookie Icing chocolate icing

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, beat butter and granulated sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and salt; beat until blended. Beat in flour gradually on low speed until soft dough forms. Shape dough into ball.
  • On lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using 2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 38 circles, gently pressing together and rerolling scraps as necessary. Onto ungreased cookie sheets, place circles 2 inches apart.
  • Bake 10 to 12 minutes until edges are just beginning to brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely before decorating.
  • In small bowl, stir together powdered sugar, 3 teaspoons milk and the vanilla until blended. If necessary, stir in additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until smooth and desired consistency.
  • To Decorate Cookies: Using knife, spread icing over cookies in thin layer. For each cookie, immediately sprinkle about 3/4 teaspoon white chocolate evenly over icing. Press into icing 2 vanilla baking chips, cut side down, for ears, 2 chocolate chips for eyes and 1 mint, cut side down, for nose. Using chocolate icing, pipe mouth.
