How to make
-
STEP 1
Combine granulated sugar and butter in bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add egg, corn syrup and vanilla; continue beating until well mixed. Add all remaining ingredients except powdered sugar; beat at low speed until well mixed.
-
STEP 2
Divide dough into thirds. Shape each third into round ball; flatten to 1/2-inch thickness. Wrap in plastic food wrap. Refrigerate 1-2 hours until firm or up to 3 days.
-
STEP 3
Heat oven to 375°F.
-
STEP 4
Roll out dough on lightly floured surface, one-third at a time (keeping remaining dough refrigerated), to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut with 2- to 3-inch star cookie cutters. Place, 1 inch apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 5-7 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet; remove to cooling rack. Cool completely. Sift powdered sugar over cooled cookies.
Tip #1
Store cookies in a loosely covered container at room temperature up to 1 week or freeze up to 2 months in an airtight container.
Tip #2
If dough is too firm for rolling, let stand at room temperature until just soft enough to roll.
