We used sanding sugar in shades of silver and blue for these Glitter Ball Cookies-the perfect palette for a Hanukkah celebration or New Year's party.

Yield Makes about 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Sanding sugar, in assorted colors
Creamy Ginger Filling

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter, confectioners' sugar, and salt with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes, scraping down side of bowl as necessary. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low; add flour, and mix just until combined. Shape into 3/4-inch balls (chill dough if too sticky). Place sanding sugar in shallow bowls. Roll each ball in sanding sugar, and place on parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart.
  • Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until edges are lightly golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cookies cool completely on a wire rack. Spread 2 cookies with just enough filling to allow them to stick together. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.

I'm not a big fan of glitter, but these cookies were so cute that I had to try them. I'm glad I did because they were delicious! The glitter didn't overpower the flavor of the cookie at all.
