Now you all know I am a busy mamma. I homeschool my two littles redheads, which takes up a BIG part of my day. The rest of my time is spent tending to my family, the house, etc ... That being said, I don't always have time to make goodies. I am always on the look out for quick, simple recipes, which is what I am sharing with you today. Today I am sharing with you my go to cookie recipe, with a holiday flare of course. It is super easy to make and takes little time and ingredients to make. Perfect for last minute Christmas cookie making!
Now you can leave your cookies as is or you can whip up some yummy Buttercream icing. I would go with the icing. It is Delish!
Here is my recipe for 5 Minute Butter-cream Frosting
1 lb. box of Powdered Sugar
1/4 cup of milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 stick of butter (softened)
Beat with electric mixer for 2 minutes, scraping bowl often.
I love adding food coloring for the holidays. Always so festive!
Frost cookies and make into sandwhiches.
These are THE BEST whoopie pies EVER!
So go make some and Enjoy!
