Steps:
- Cream together the butter and sugar. Then add the eggs and vanilla, and mix until thoroughly combined.
- Gradually add in the dry ingredients, putting in the flour a bit at a time, until the dough is all mixed.
- Divide dough in half, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least an hour.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Roll out dough to 1/4″ thick, and cut into rounds.
- Using a straw or the tip of an icing bag, punch holes where the buttonholes would be.
- Bake for around 10 minutes, or until the edges are just turning golden.
- Remove the cookies from the baking sheet, and allow to cool completely, else the icing will run off.
- Mix the icing by beating into the powdered sugar the egg white, and just enough water to make a runny, pourable consistency - you may need to experiment a bit with this to get a great, workable batch.
- Tint to desired colors with food coloring.
- To ice the cookies, place one or two cookies at a time on a long, flat knife.
- Hold the cookies over the bowl of icing, and spoon icing over, making sure to get the sides covered.
- Allow the excess icing to drip off, then transfer the cookies to a rack over paper to catch the drips.
- Repeat until all the cookies are covered.
- Let cookies dry for several hours (if you can wait!).
