My grandmother has kept this secret in the family for many generations and even as a kid some of my best memories was standing on a chair in the kitchen icing these cookies and making a huge mess. In the end no matter what they look like they're extremely delicious and are unlike any other cookie you'll ever eat.

Steps

1

Mix all ingredients in a large mixing bowl until completely blended together then add flour until dough is light and fluffy
2

Spread a cup of flour on the counter and place dough in the middle
3

Roll dough out continually flouring the top to ensure roller doesn't stick
4

Once the dough is about 1/4 inch thick cut out with cookie cutters and place on greased baking sheet
5

Bake on 350°F until edges of dough begin to tan
6

Remove from oven and place on wax paper on the counter
7

Make icing in multiple colors if desired ( I use small bowls and make all colors so there is a variety of cookies to choose from)
8

After mixing icing use spoon to spread on cookies (the fun part)
9

Let cookies sit until icing hardens (usually about 30 minutes)

Eat away! Enjoy!
