These are so flaky. It’s a good thing I’m talking about cookies here. Ha! They literally melt in your mouth. They are light but rich . . . and the cream cheese frosting is a perfect complement.
Cookies:
1 cup butter
¾ cup cornstarch
¾ cup powdered sugar
1 cup flour
Frosting:
8 oz. cream cheese
½ cup butter
dash salt
3 c powdered sugar
1 t vanilla
food coloring, optional
To make cookies, cream butter until fluffy. Add cornstarch and sugar. Mix well. Add flour and mix until dough forms. Using ¾-inch scoop, form balls from dough and place on cookie sheet. Flatten with bottom of glass (dipped in powdered sugar to prevent sticking). Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. Cool. Meanwhile make frosting by beating ingredients until creamy and smooth. Frost cooled cookies.
