-flavor of your choice.
Powdered Sugar
Cream butter and sugar until light. Add flour and
salt. Chill slightly and roll 1/8" thick between wax
paper sheets. Roll only a small amount of dough at a
time. Using a 2-1/2" cookie cutter, cut cookies. Cut
center out of half of cookies (I use my thimble to cut
centers). Bake all cookies on ungreased sheets at 400°
for 8-10 minutes or less, until very lightly browned.
Cool on wire racks. Spread whole cookies with
preserves, piled higher in center. Top with cookie
ring. Sprinkle with 4x sugar. Store in tin box between
layers of wax paper.
