Quick and easy Champagne Buttercream Cookies. Perfect for any celebration!
Ingredients
Cookie:
1½ cups powdered sugar
1 cup butter softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2½ cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
Frosting:
3 cups powdered sugar
½ cup butter- softened to room temperature
6 tablespoons champagne or sparkling wine*
Instructions
Mix powdered sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until light and creamy.
Add in vanilla and egg and stir to incorporate.
Add flour, baking soda and cream of tartar to a separate bowl and whisk gently to incorporate.
Slowly mix in dry ingredients, stirring well.
Remove dough from mixer and wrap tightly in saran wrap and place in fridge for 2-24 hours to chill.
Once chilled, remove from fridge and roll out into a ½ inch thick on a lightly floured surface (I use powdered sugar instead of flour)
Cut into a circle shape with a circle cookie
Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes.
Cool on a rack.
For frosting, add butter and powdered sugar to a large mixing bowl and mix until fluffy.
Add champagne slowly, continuing to mix well.
You may need to adjust with a splash of milk or cream if the mixture seems a little too thick. If it seems too wet just add another ¼ cup of powdered sugar.
