Vanilla Butter Meltaway Cookie
Last week I was so excited to share our Christmas Sweets & Treats series that I've partnered with Rodelle this holiday season! Our first recipe for Vanilla Cranberry Chocolate Chip Truffles was a huge hit with my family and readers too! Be sure to check it out if you haven't already (I'll link all the recipes at the bottom of this post).
Today I have a Vanilla Butter Meltaway Cookie that's topped with a Creamy Vanilla Butter Frosting. These are one of my very favorite cookies to make, in the past I've made them with almond extract and last Christmas I used a Peppermint extract. Both were delicious but I'm really a vanilla lover so this version was my favorite! Check out the recipe below!

Hello,
Thank you for the recipe. I did make this recipe and I loved it, not to sweet and not to buttery. They were delicious. I did them with a cookie gun maker. A little thin but still came out great.
