Sugar Cookie Dough:
4 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 lb, 8 oz unsalted butter, softened
3 eggs
1 TBSP vanilla extract
7 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 TBSP baking soda
1 TBSP cream of tartar
Preheat oven to 375FRecipe
1. Cream the powdered sugar and butter for at least 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and scrape down the bowl after each egg. Add vanilla and mix for 2 more minutes.
2. Mix in the flour, baking soda and cream of tartar while mixer is on slow speed. Mix till you have a smooth dough. Chill for at least 4 hours before rolling out.
3. Roll out dough and cut using whatever shapes you would like(doesn�t really matter once you throw icing on them, it�s anyone�s guess as to what they are)
*This recipe has been passed around my family for awhile and it has never said how many cookies it will make. I got 4 very large balls of dough out of this batch. And about 180 farm animals.
Icing for �Circus Cookies�
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 TBSP vanilla
pink food coloring
Whisk the sugar, milk and vanilla together until smooth. Set 1/2 of the icing to the side to remain white. Add pink food coloring to the second half of icing.
To make the �Circus� Animals:
Dip on side of cookie into icing. Before icing sets up sprinkle on multi-colored decoration balls. Let sit for about an hour to set up.
