    Christmas with Southern Living 2007

    Recipe Introduction


    Whatever you choose to call them, these colorful coaters transform sugar cookies from bland to bold. Roll them in the sugary goodness, bake, and get ready for a freshly-baked cookie feast for your friends and family.

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup butter, softened
    1/2 cup shortening
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1 cup powdered sugar
    2 large eggs
    3/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    4 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon cream of tartar
    Colored sugars, sparkling sugars, and multicolored jimmies
    4" white craft sticks

    Recipe



    Beat butter and shortening at medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy; add sugars, beating well. Add eggs, oil, and vanilla, beating until blended.

    Combine flour and next 3 ingredients; add to butter mixture, blending well. Cover and chill dough 2 hours or overnight.

    Shape dough into 1 1/2" balls. Roll each ball in colored sugar or jimmies in individual bowls, pressing gently, if necessary, to coat balls. Place 2" apart on ungreased baking sheets. Insert craft sticks about 1" into each cookie to resemble a lollipop.

    Bake at 350° for 10 to 11 minutes or until set. Let cool 2 minutes on baking sheets; remove cookie pops to wire racks to cool completely.

    YIELD: 4 1/2 Dozen
