Frosted Shortbread Cookies

New Hope Mills Frosted Shortbread Cookies

Ingredients for the cookies:

  • 3 cups New Hope Mills Old-Fashioned Buckwheat Pancake Mix
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup softened butter
  • 2 tsp cinnamon

Ingredients for the frosting:

  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ Tbsp milk

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F. In an electric mixer, cream together butter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Mix in 2 eggs and then add the pancake mix and cinnamon. After flour has been incorporated, split the dough into 2 mounds onto a floured surface. Press and mold each mound into a log. Wrap the logs in cling wrap or wax paper and chill, about 1 hour. Using a sharp knife, cut slices off the logs and place onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 9-12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool completely.

Prepare the frosting by whisking together powdered sugar and milk. Drizzle or spread on top of cookies.
