Ingredients
Ingredients for Cookie:
- 1 c room temperature butter
- 3/4 c vegetable oil
- 1 1/4 c sugar
- 3/4 c powdered sugar
- 2 T water
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
- 1 tsp salt
- 5 1/2 c flour
Ingredients for Frosting:
- 1/2 c room temperature butter
- 3/4 c sour cream
- 1 2-lb pkg of powdered sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 c milk
- food coloring (optional)
Instructions
- Cream together your butter, oil, sugars, water and egg.
- Combine dry ingredients & slowly add to butter mixture.
- Mix until combined. Dough should be a bit crumbly & not sticky at all.
- Roll into a golf ball size of dough & place on lined cookie sheet.
- Put some sugar in a dish (this is in addition to ingredients listed above). Stick the bottom of a glass in it – this is going to be your cookie press.
- Firmly press it into the center of your dough ball – you want the dough to spill out over the sides of the glass.
- Bake at 350 for 8 minutes. They should just barely be browning on the bottom only. Let cool on baking sheet. Once cool – put them in the refrigerator.
- To make frosting – cream together your butter, sour cream & salt. Slowly add powdered sugar. When it gets too thick – add in a splash of milk to thin out. Alternate this process until desired consistency. If adding food coloring – add a few drops at this point & thoroughly mix.
- Keep cookies in a sealed container until they are ready to serve. These cookies should stay cold and the frosting is room temperature. Frost right before serving.
Notes
You can use this recipe for any occasion. Add food coloring to frosting and top with whatever you’d like (examples: chopped nuts, sprinkles, coconut (plain or toasted), M&M’s or Reeses, etc.).
