Provided by Karen

Categories     Dessert

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup salted butter (softened (2 sticks))
4 cups powdered sugar (divided)
4-6 tablespoons cream (divided**)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla (I love Mexican vanilla )
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
gel food coloring

Steps:

  • In a large bowl or stand mixer, use the whisk attachment* to beat the softened butter until it is fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Remember to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl!
  • Add half of the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons cream**. Beat well. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
  • Add the remaining powdered sugar and 2 more tablespoons of cream. Beat well.
  • Add salt, vanilla, coconut, and almond extracts. Beat well. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
  • Add remaining 1-2 tablespoons of cream, if needed.
  • Add gel food coloring if you want to tint the frosting. (liquid food coloring can mess with the consistency.)
  • This is enough frosting to do about 2 dozen cookies, but that totally depends on your cookie shape. Frost the cookies (Here's the cookie recipe) and store in a tupperware on the counter for 2-3 days.
  • Leftover frosting is great on graham crackers!

SUGAR COOKIES WITH BUTTERCREAM FROSTING



Sugar Cookies with Buttercream Frosting image

BUTTER ICING FOR SUGAR COOKIES



Butter Icing for Sugar Cookies image

Here's a terrific recipe for icing sugar cookies, no raw egg whites.

SUGAR COOKIES WITH BUTTERCREAM FROSTING



Sugar Cookies With Buttercream Frosting image

This sugar cookie recipe goes way back in my family, at least to my maternal great-grandmother. My mom always had a lot of cookie cutters, so we would make these for different occasions and decorate them with colored icing.

Provided by Cook-a-holic

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Yield 20-30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup shortening
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sugar
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons milk
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine, softened
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Cream together shortening, egg, vanilla and sugar.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture in three phases, alternating with the three tablespoons of milk.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes. At this point the dough can be kept overnight in the fridge or for several months in the freezer.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Flour a smooth surface, and roll the dough to 1/4 inch, working with about half the dough at a time. Put the remaining dough in the fridge to stay chilled. Cut out the cookies with cookie cutters of your choice.
  • Place cut-out cookies on a cookie sheet, and bake for 8-10 minutes.
  • Allow cookies to cool before decorating with frosting.
  • Buttercream Frosting: Cream softened butter and sugar. Beat in vanilla and milk, adding milk by teaspoons and beating until frosting is smooth and of desired spreading consistency.
