To make cookies, cream butter, sugar, egg and vanilla in large mixer
bowl until light and fluffy. Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking
soda and salt; add to creamed mixture, blending well. Chill about 1
hour or until firm enough to roll.
Roll a small portion of dough at a time on lightly floured board or
between 2 pieces of wax paper to 1 / 4-inch thickness. Cut with
shamrock-shaped cutter or other shape, as desired. Place on greased cookie sheet.
Bake in preheated 325-degree oven for 5 to 7 minutes, or until no
indentation remains when lightly touched. Cool cookies on sheet 1 minute;
remove to wire rack to cool thoroughly.
To make glaze, melt butter over low heat. Remove from heat; blend in
sugar and vanilla. Add milk gradually; beat until proper consistency.
Blend in 2 or 3 drops green food color. Use to frost cookies.
Makes about 2 dozen cookies and about 1 cup glaze.
