Steps:
- COOKIE DOUGH: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine sugars, butter, milk, eggs, root beer extract, and vanilla; mix until well blended. Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Beat until a soft dough forms. Drop dough in 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoon-size balls onto prepared cookie sheet. Place the dough balls approximately 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies are just turning brown. Cool completely. FROSTING: In a small mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar, half and half, butter, and root beer extract; mix until smooth. Frost each cookie. Make sure the frosting is set before storing the cookies in an airtight container.
Tips:
- Use a high-quality root beer. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the cookies.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
