List of Ingredients




1/2 cup butter softened
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces ricotta cheese
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 tablespoons milk


Recipe



1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

2. In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup butter and white sugar
until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla
and ricotta cheese. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; gradually
stir into the cheese mixture. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches
apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.

3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are
golden. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before
removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

4. In a medium bowl, cream together the remaining butter and
confectioners' sugar. Beat in vanilla and milk gradually until a
spreadable consistency is reached. Frost cooled cookies.
