BETTY CROCKER CREAM WAFERS

From my mother-in-law Libby. I think this is the one she made. Detective work is hard, lol. They said these would melt in your mouth.

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h9m

Yield 64 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup butter
2 cups flour
1/3 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter
3/4 cup sifted icing sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Mix butter, flour and whipping cream thoroughly. Chill 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Roll dough 1/8" thick on a lightly floured board.
  • Cut into 1-1/2 inch rounds.
  • Transfer onto waxed paper heavily sprinkled with sugar, turning to coat both sides.
  • Place on ungreased baking sheet; prick in 4 places with fork.
  • Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until slightly puffy.
  • Put 2 cookies together with filling.
  • Filling.
  • Blend butter, icing sugar and vanilla together.
  • If desired tint pink or green (which I would; the picture is great).

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the cookies will taste. This is especially true for the butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the cookies, making them light and airy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can toughen the cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Betty Crocker Cream Wafers are a delicious and easy-to-make cookie that is perfect for any occasion. They are light and airy, with a delicate vanilla flavor. These cookies are also very versatile and can be used in a variety of desserts, such as ice cream sandwiches, trifles, and parfaits. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these delicious cookies that your family and friends will love.
