| 1. For Cookie Dough: Cream butter & sugar. | 2. Beat in eggs, baking powder, extracts and 3 cups of flour. | 3. Add remaining flour until a stiff dough forms. | 4. Chill dough for at least an hour to make it easier to work with. | 5. At this point you can form the dough into knots (small for cookies- larger knots yield egg biscuits) or roll out the dough and use cutters. | 6. Bake for 10-12 minutes at 375°. | 7. For Glaze: I put about 2 cups of powdered sugar in a bowl, add the extract (just a splash) and a little milk. | 8. Then I mix and add more milk until it gets to a smooth consistency- I don't like it too runny. | 9. Should be like the consistency of a thick alfredo sauce. | 10. Once cookies are cooled, dip the tops of each one into the glaze, or drizzle glaze over the cookies, and allow to dry completely. | 11. Can be topped with colored sugar or sprinkles, your choice. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
