Recipe from 1991
Ingredients
- 2 sticks butter
- 3/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup flour
Frosting
- 3 ounces of cream cheese
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 - 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- In a mixing bowl, beat butter until creamy. Add cornstarch, powdered sugar, and flour, beating until smooth.
- Roll dough into small balls and press down like thumbprint cookies
- Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for about 12 minutes. They do not need to brown
- Cool
- Mix together the cream cheese, vanilla, and powdered sugar. Beat until smooth and frost cookies
Notes
- These were pretty good. Crumbly. I can see why they're called melt away cookies. They kind of remind me of the pecan ball wedding cookie type things we had a lot in Egypt
