Cinnamon Biscuit Cookies







3 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp Pampered Chef Cinnamon Plus (for the boring kind you can use reg. cinnamon)
1 cup softened butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla


Mix together your flour, sugar, baking soda and powder, and cinnamon. Using electric mixer (or your husbands brute strength) add in butter, sour cream, egg and vanilla. 


Refrigerate for about an hour


Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Grease all of your pans that you are working with (nobody likes a one legged gingerbread man). 


On your beautiful clean counter sprinkle and spread some flour. Your mixture may feel a bit sticky still. Add some flour as you need to. Roll out your dough and start cuttin!! Bells, candy canes, wreaths, whatever your heart desires. Just remember not to roll your dough too thin....I hate thin crispy cookies :)


Bake for about 10 minutes. Just as the tops start to brown. 


Place on your Pampered Chef cooling rack and repeat. Dont have a Pampered Chef cooling rack? Well you better call me before starting this recipe! (Like that? My sneaky business ways!)


Frosting:
4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
1 tbs vanilla
1/4 cup milk


Mix all together...this is a thin frosting. I like to seperate the mixture into 4 or 5 different bowls, adding food coloring to have multiple colors. I use my PC basting brush to brush a thin layer on the cookies....I dont like overly sweet cookies. But cake on the frosting as you desire!! :)
