- Prepare the dough: In a large bowl whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, mix the butter and sugars until combined and smooth. Next, add one egg at a time and mix. Then add the vanilla and allspice and mix. Lastly, slowly stir in the flour mixture until it forms a nice dough.
- Bake the cookies: Refrigerate the dough for at least one hour. When ready to bake, pre-heat oven to 350°. These cookies bake best with a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Dip the bottom of a small cup in powdered sugar and lightly press down on each ball to flatten the top slightly. Bake for 8-12minutes.
- Glaze: The cookies need to be cooled completely before adding the glaze. To make the glaze, add the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla into a bowl. Whisk thoroughly untilglaze is smooth. Spoon the glaze on the top of each cookie, and smooth out. After all the cookies are frosted, sprinkle your favorite Christmas sprinkles on top.
- Enjoy!
