Italian Butter Cookies

I grew up with quite a few Italian bakeries around town. I've searched for ten years for a recipe. Found it on pinterest! Now I'm on a search for the colored ones with the sprinkles on them. I don't know what they're called though. : )

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cream butter and shortening until fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs (one at a time) until blended.
- 2
Add dry ingredients, flour, cornstarch and powdered sugar, mix until blended.
- 3
Using a piping bag with star tip, make quarter size circles on cookie sheet. Make a couple first, if they spread out to much just add 1/4 cup more of flour and cornstarch. I did this because the first few spread out to much. This tip was in the recipe. I guess it's an altitude issue.
- 4
Bake at 375 for 12 to. 15 minutes or until lightly browned around edges. Remove to rack to cool.
- 5
Melt chocolate and dip cookies into chocolate and put on rack to set. You can use sprinkles also, they look pretty.

Easy Butter Cookies Easy Butter Cookies
I like crunchy cookies with a small amount of butter, so I created this recipe.Soften the butter. If you can't combine the dough, butter is most likely the problem. Don't use hard butter, or melt into liquid after microwaving. Usually the dough is very soft and easy to roll into a ball. Recipe by Bakazoku cookpad.japan -

But how relaxing is it to make cookies at home with the little helper? We like it so much; this time it was the butter biscuits (recipe taken from my new book "Christmas Sweets") to which I made some small changes and covered some with chocolate, others with cinnamon powder and others with cane sugar 😀 Simple and quick to to prepare, butter biscuits are excellent for breakfast or as a snack, they can be kept for a few days in a tin box 😉 Martha Maldonado -
