Creme Wafers

Creme Wafers

This is mom's recipe and I make these cookies every year for Christmas, they are so light and buttery, they literally melt in your mouth. I also made these for Angie's baby shower.

1 cup soft butter
1/3 cup whipping creme
2 cups flour
granulated sugar
creamy filling (below)

Mix together butter, cream and flour. Gather into a ball, cover and chill.

Heat oven to 375°. Roll about 1/3 of the dough at a time to 1/4" thickness
onto floured surface. Refridgerate remaining dough. Cut rolled dough into
1-1 1/2 inch circles. Transfer rounds with spatula to a dish of sugar, coat
both sides. Place onto ungreased baking sheet. Prick rounds with fork 4
times. Bake 7-9 minutes or just until set, but not brown. Cool completely.
Put cookies together in pairs with creamy filling.

Filling:

1/4 cup soft butter
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
food color

Beat until smooth and fluffy. Tint with food coloring of your choice.
