Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, divided

  • Roll dough into balls working with a teaspoon of dough at a time. (Dough can be chilled first for easier handling, if desired.) Place onto a cookie sheet.
  • Bake at 325 degrees for about 25 minutes, until set.
  • Pour remaining powdered sugar into a bowl. Roll warm cookies in powdered sugar and cool on a wire rack. Roll cookies in powdered sugar again after they are completely cooled, if desired.
