NATHAN FAMILY BUTTER COOKIES
Steps:
- With an electric mixer equipped with a paddle, cream the butter and sugar together. Add 2 eggs, brandy and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add salt and 3 cups flour, mixing well. Pour out onto a sheet of plastic wrap, wrap tightly, and chill for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Divide dough in two, and put half in refrigerator. On lightly floured surface, roll the other half into a circle 1/8 inch thick. (The thinner the dough, the better.) Cut with cookie cutters of your choice, dipping cutters in flour to prevent sticking. Transfer the cutouts to 2 ungreased cookie sheets. Repeat with the remaining cookie dough. Leave as is, or brush with egg yolk, and top with slivered almonds or egg white and tinted sugar.
- Bake in oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until cookies are golden, turning trays front to back after 6 minutes. Remove, and cool on wire racks.
