SPANISH SIGHS FROM CUDILLERO (COOKIES)SUSPIROS DE CUDILLERO

Steps:

• Put the butter in a bowl and add the sugar, little by little, beating until the mixture is creamy.
• Blend in the egg and beat until light. Mix the flour and baking powder and blend along with the vanilla into the creamed mixture until a stiff dough forms.
• Knead lightly and divide into 2 parts. Roll each part to make a 2-inch diameter log. Wrap in waxed paper and foil and chill at least 1 hour or up to 2 weeks.
• Cover baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
• Preheat oven to 375°F Cut dough into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place on baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden. Allow to cool on the baking sheets, then dust with powdered sugar. Store in an airtight container. Makes 3 dozen cookies.
