Time 26m

Yield 50

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
salt
1 (12 ounce) package white chocolate chips
¾ cup multicolored candy sprinkles (jimmies), as desired

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease or line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Cream the butter in a mixing bowl until light colored and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth. Add food coloring, if desired. Gradually mix in the confectioners' sugar, flour, and salt to make a smooth dough.
Place dough into cookie press cylinder fitted with 1 inch sawtooth ribbon disk. Press dough into long strips on prepared cookie sheets. Use a paring knife dipped into flour to score the strips every two inches.
Bake in preheated oven until edges are slightly golden, about 6 minutes. Remove from oven, cool slightly, and cut along score lines while they are still warm. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt white chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler placed over medium heat, or in the microwave. Add food coloring, if desired. Spread white chocolate icing on the bottom of one cookie and place the bottom of a second cookie into the icing to form a sandwich. Place cookie sandwich onto prepared baking sheet. Repeat to assemble remaining cookies, and refrigerate on the baking sheet 10 minutes to set icing. Remove and dip ends of cookies into white chocolate, then into candy sprinkles. Place cookies on wax paper until white chocolate is set.

Tips:

Use high-quality white chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies.
Make sure your butter and sugar are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the cookies to cream together properly.
Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.
Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape.
Bake the cookies at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Overbaking can make the cookies dry and crumbly.
Let the cookies cool completely before you frost them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
