Recipe- Treat Your Kids With Mimosa Butter Cookies

You can add many different flavors to butter cookies to make them your own. Try an alternate type of citrus zest, or add an alternate liquid to change things up.

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1-1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup champagne
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Method

* Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream first four ingredients until light and fluffy. Mix juice and champagne. Add flour to creamed mixture alternately with juice mixture, beating well after each addition.

* Cut a small hole in the tip of a pastry bag or in a corner of a food-safe plastic bag; insert a #1M star tip. Transfer dough to bag; pipe 2-in. circles 2 in. apart onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets.

* Bake until edges are set, 10-12 minutes. Cool on pan 5 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool.
