Steps:
- 1. Cream together shortening, sugar, egg and vanilla.
- 2. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda and salt.
- 3. Mix the dry with the wet ingredients.
- 4. Use a cookie scoop or a 2 Tablespoon measuring spoon to scoop and drop cookies onto a cookie sheet.
- 5. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
- 6. Put a 1/4 cup of butter into a sauce pan over medium-medium high heat. The butter will melt and then come to a boil.
- 7. Allow the butter to cook until the bubbles have died down and you are left with a brown butter.
- 8. Add in powder sugar a little at a time. After the sugar has been mixed in, add about a teaspoon of water so the frosting becomes a spreading consistency. If the frosting is watery or it appears the sugar hasn't absorbed all of the butter, add more powedered sugar.
- 9. When the cookies have cooled, gently frost the cookies with the brown butter frosting.
