Time 22m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
11 ounces white candy coating or 11 ounces milk chocolate confectionary coating
nuts (optional) or candy sprinkles (optional)

Steps:

  • Cream butter and sugar in mixing bowl.
  • Beat in egg and vanilla.
  • Combine flour, salt and baking soda, gradually add to creamed mixture.
  • Using a cookie press, press dough onto ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake at 375° for 7-9 minutes.
  • Original recipe says not to let brown but I prefer it when the edges are slightly brown, it makes the bottoms nice and crispy.
  • Remove to cooling rack and let cool completely.
  • Melt confectionary coating and dip each cookie half way and sprinkle with finely ground nuts or sprinkles.
  • I usually do half semi sweet chocolate and half white chocolate and sprinkle with holiday colored non periels.
  • Let harden on wax paper.
