These can also be made with the Athens phyllo dough or PepperRidge Farm's Puff Pastry rolled thinner in confestioners sugar so as not to puff close the filling hole. Cut both with a Pizza Cutter Roller or although maybe you can use the Athens shells, which may result in a slightly bigger cookie if so just bake accordingly and enjoy!
The ICING or any icing made with granulated sugar with a liquid & Crisco. The sugar should be added to warmed milk (liquid) so it dissolves & then left to cool before adding the other ingredients or visa verse, this prevents the icing from becoming "GRITTY"! If you don't like this ICING, you could USE YOUR FAVORITE, but any ICING should really be piped on with a pastry bag or corner of a baggy making for a prettier cookie! You can make these Even More Festive & Delicious by Sprinkling with your choice of finely chopped or ground nuts, colored sugar, candy decorator sprinkles or a little grated chocolate. I worked with a guy whose Wife made these put them on his cookie tray to bring to work, it was the first time I ever had them and I was wowed! I wasn't the only one, they were the first to go & she had quite a variety of Christmas Cookies & lots of them on his tray! They have been on my tray ever since!
A little Bit of Work (a lot less using Athens Phyllo [Fillo] or the PepperRidge Farm's Puff Pastry - rolled thin or your cup will close but well worth your EFFORT!
Happy Holidays to All and to All Happy Holiday Baking!
