- 1 cookie cutter
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 c all purpose flour
- 1/3 c sugar
- 1/2 stick butter softened

- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- jolly ranchers a handful, smashed into small pieces to fill centers
Instructions
- Set oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter and sugar with mixer then add egg and vanilla. Mix until fluffy. (With a roll of dough you skip that step. Just put in between two pieces of parchment paper to roll out so you can cut into the shapes you want)
- Add flour, baking powder, and salt into wet mixture. Mix until dry ingredients are mixed well. Take dough and roll into a ball and place on floured counter top.
- Cut out circles, then use your shamrock shape in the middle of your circle, or use any shape you want. Place shape cut cookie on top of parchment lined cookie sheet.
- Take Jolly Ranchers and place in baggie, hit with a heavy object to break it up into little pieces. Place the jolly rancher pieces inside the shamrock or shape you have made.
- Place in oven and bake for 8-10 minutes. Take out before the edges turn golden brown.
- Allow to cool on baking sheet before removing so they can harden up inside.
- Store in an airtight container (if there are any left). Makes about 2 dozen.
