Italian Sprinkle Cookies image

This is another recipe I have used in our cookie exchanges. Posting it, so I can get rid of the piece of paper it is written on :) **UPDATE** I made these without the lemon extract...instead I used approx 3 tbls of lemon zest!! Perfect flavors of lemon and almond!!

Time 1h40m

Yield 7 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 eggs
5 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder, plus
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup vegetable oil or 1 cup shortening, melted
1 tablespoon almond extract
3 tablespoons lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup warm milk
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
colored sprinkles (mixed red, green and white!)

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, beat eggs until light and foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Set aside. In another mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar and baking powder; stir in oil and extracts. Gradually add eggs (dough will be stiff). Roll dough into 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
  • For glaze, combine milk and extracts in a large bowl. Add sugar; whisk until the glaze is smooth. As soon as cookies are removed from the oven, quickly immerse 2 or 3 at a time into the glaze. Remove with slotted spoon (or fingers lol).
  • Place cookies on wire racks to drain. quickly top with sprinkles. Let dry 24 hours before storing in airtight containers.
  • Time does not include drying time.

I'm not a big fan of anise, but these cookies are still pretty good.

I've tried this recipe twice now, and both times the cookies have come out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
