More 4th of July Favorites




I was reminded today by a friend of mine of long lost cookie recipe I usually only make in the summer. They sound wierd but trust me if you like rootbeer you will love them!




Cookies


1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup butter (softened)

1 egg

1/4 cup buttermilk

1 tsp. Rootbeer concentrate (extract)

1 3/4 cup flour

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/4 tsp. salt


Cream sugar and butter, add egg, buttermilk and rootbeer concentrate. Mix well. Add dry ingredients. Dough will be slightly moist. Drop by teaspoonful on greased pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 7-8 minutes. Do Not over cook. Place on cooling racks. Glaze while still warm.


Glaze
2 cups powdered sugar

1/3 cup butter (softened)

1 1/2 tsp. Rootbeer concentrate

2 Tbsp hot water

Mix well, spoon on cookies.
I usually double the recipe it only makes about 2 dozen per batch.
