Categories     Cookies     Dessert     Bake     Phyllo/Puff Pastry Dough

Yield 5 Dozen

Number Of Ingredients 16

COOKIE DOUGH:
-1 cup granulated sugar
-1 cup packed brown sugar
-1 cup butter or margarine, softened
-1/2 cup milk
-2 eggs
-2 teaspoons root beer extract
-2 teaspoons vanilla
-4 cups all purpose flour
-1 teaspoon baking soda
-1/4 teaspoon salt
FROSTING:
-1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
-2 tablespoons half and half
-2 teaspoons butter or margarine, softened
-1 teaspoon root beer extract

Steps:

  • COOKIE DOUGH: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine sugars, butter, milk, eggs, root beer extract, and vanilla; mix until well blended. Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Beat until a soft dough forms. Drop dough in 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoon-size balls onto prepared cookie sheet. Place the dough balls approximately 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies are just turning brown. Cool completely. FROSTING: In a small mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar, half and half, butter, and root beer extract; mix until smooth. Frost each cookie. Make sure the frosting is set before storing the cookies in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ice cream. The better the ice cream, the better the cookies will be.
  • Make sure the ice cream is very cold. This will help prevent it from melting too quickly and making the cookies soggy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them firm up and prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Root beer float cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of cookies that are sure to please everyone. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet, give root beer float cookies a try!
