These daintily decorated cookies are perfect for a bridal or baby shower.
Ingredients:
Cookies
1 1/4 cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp orange blossom water
3 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp fine salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Directions:
Cookies
Beat butter and sugar with electric beaters until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg, vanilla and orange blossom water and beat in well.
In a separate bowl, stir flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. Add to butter mixture and beat on low speed just until blended. Shape dough into 2 discs, wrap and chill for at least 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to ¼ -inch and cut out desired shapes, such as flowers. Place cookies on baking tray, one inch apart and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until just lightly browned around the edges. Allow to cool completely before icing.
