Peter Rabbit Cookies

It's not Easter until Peter Rabbit makes his appearance!
 
 

Another wonderful recipe from my Gram -- cute as could be with their little ears and bunny tails! They look sweet in a basket, or arranged in a grouping on a plate lined with Easter grass!

You'll Need
1/2 cup soft butter
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon almond flavoring
1 1/4 cup flour
powdered sugar for dusting
Step by Step
  1. Cream butter, sugar and flavoring together.
  2. Stir in flour and mix well.
  3. If dough is too dry to handle, add 1 to 2 tablespoons butter
  4. Chill 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  6. Roll 1 level teaspoon dough into ball for head, and 1 heaping teaspoon dough into ball for body.
  7. Use tiny bits of dough for ears and a tiny ball for the tail.
  8. Bake about 20 minutes, do not brown.
  9. While warm, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Happy Easter everyone!
Thanks again to my Gram for another wonderful recipe!
