Rollout Christmas Cookie Dough and Icing RecipeI’m sharing my mom’s recipe today. It’s that recipe that always reminds me of home and my childhood. Every year my mom would bake a big batch of rollout cookies and my brother and I would sit on the counter and frost cookies for hours. I carried on the tradition and made these with my boys when they were little and friends kids too. Here’s a little tip: the corn syrup in the icing recipe is what makes it thick enough to create  beautiful designs and patterns on your cookies. I load it into a decorating bag and get creative.

Ingredients
  1. 3/4 C Sugar
  2. 1/2 C Melted Shortening
  3. 2 Eggs Beaten
  4. 1 tsp Vanilla
  5. 2 C Flour
  6. 1 tsp Cream Tartar
  7. 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  8. 1/2 tsp Salt
Instructions
  1. Combine Sugar, Shortening, Eggs, and Vanilla with a mixer. Add Remaining ingredients and mix until a dough ball forms. Chill for one hours. Roll out dough 1/8" thick, cut into shapes and bake on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 6-10 minutes depending on oven temp.
Notes
  1. I only bake these cookies for 6 minutes and let them cool on the cookies sheet. The heat coming off it will finish the baking time and give you a firm yet soft cookie.

    Fun and messy decorating sugar cookies:). My mom made the frosting with confection sugar and water, adding food coloring back in the day. But boy, we just had a blast decorating them:).
    Merry Christmas! Kathleen in Az
