Time 21m

Yield 20-30 cookies, 20-30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup soft real butter
2 cups flour
1/3 cup whipping cream

Steps:

  • mix all ingredients chill for 1-2 hours divide in 1/3's and roll out in 1/8 inch thick on a floured board, cut with a 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cookie cutter or small glass (I use a shots glass).
  • I sprinkle with a mix of cinnamon and sugar mixture. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet after pricking each wafer with a fork 3-4 times.Bake at 350 for 6-8 minutes.
  • FILLING.
  • 1/4 cup real butter.
  • 1 egg yolk.
  • 3/4 cup powder sugar.
  • 1 teaspoons vanilla.
  • folor coloring of your chose.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality butter and cream cheese for the best flavor. Soften them to room temperature before creaming together to ensure a smooth and creamy mixture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour and make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies in a preheated oven. This will help them bake evenly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

Swedish cream cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their soft and chewy texture, creamy filling, and sweet glaze, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
