Ingredients:
2 cup Butter
1 1/2 cup Sugar
4 each Egg yolks
2 tsp Vanilla
4 1/2 cup Unbleached flour
1/2 tsp Salt
3 tbsp Peppermint candy
Red food colouring
Instructions:
Cream together butter and sugar. Add egg yolks and vanilla and mix
well. Sift flour and salt together and beat into butter mixture until
well mixed. When ready, divide dough in half. To one half, add 1/2
ts. red food colouring. Using about a tablespoon of dough, roll a 4"
strip of each colour (no fatter than a pencil). Place the two
coloured rolls side-by-side and press lightly together. Gently twist
like a rope and place on an ungreased cookie sheet 1" apart. Curve
the top like a candy cane and bake in a pre-heated oven at 350 F. for
about 15 minutes; do not brown. Sprinkle with crushed peppermint
candy before cool. Makes 20-30 medium cookies. Personal Note: After
trial and error, I found that it is easier to take each tablespoon of
cookie dough and roll in hands to form rough cylinder. Then put on
flat surface vertically. Using fingers and palm in same direction,
gently roll left and right until the size of a pencil. (the dough,
that is):) Pick a time to do these cookies when you're feeling
creative and have patience. It's fun and they are yummy! The end
product is worth the trouble.
