- 1 cup butter chopped, at room temperature
- 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1/3 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- pretzels
- chocolate chips
- gum drops
- 1 egg white
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar sifted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Method
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease and line 2 baking pans with parchment paper.
- Beat butter, powdered sugar and vanilla extract in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Sift flours together. Fold into mixture.
- Lightly knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Divide mixture in two and press into two flat discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Roll out dough between two sheets of parchment paper to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a bell-shaped cookie cutter, cut shapes from dough. Place 2 inches apart on prepared pans.
- Bake 15-20 mins, until golden. Cool in pan 2 mins. Remove from pan; cool completely on wire rack.
- For the icing, beat egg white in a medium bowl with electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth. Spread on each cookie. Turn cookies so bell shape is upside down. Press two pretzels into the top corners of each for antlers. Use chocolate chips for reindeer's eyes and gum drops for noses. Store cookies in an airtight container.
