 | | Directions |
- Cream the butter and powdered sugar together until fluffy.
- Add the milk and vanilla. Beat until blended.
- Whisk the flour and salt together in another bowl and then gradually mix into the creamed mixture.
- After all of the flour and salt has been mixed in, divide the dough into 24 pieces. First divide the dough into even quarters. Roll each quarter into a log shape and then cut each log into 6 even pieces. Roll the pieces into balls.
- Flatten each ball and wrapped around a cherry. Roll back into a ball shape and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake at 350°F for approximately 18 minutes or until the bottom edge is just beginning to brown.
- Remove from the oven, allow them to cool for about 5 minutes on the cookie sheet and then roll them in powdered sugar to coat evenly. Place on a wire rack to cool.
GLAZE:
- After the cookies are cooled combine all the ingredients for the glaze and stir with a fork until smooth.
- Place the glaze in a small bag, clip one corner of the bag, and then drizzle the glaze over the cookies.
