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. : )

Steps
- 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.
