Apple Strippers Cookies
- 1/3 cups Sugar
- 5 Tablespoons Butter, Softened
- 1-1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 whole Egg White
- 1 cup All-purpose Flour
- 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1/3 cups Apple Butter (or Other Jam)
- 1/3 cups Powdered Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Lemon Juice
- 1/2 teaspoons Almond Extract
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Beat sugar and butter with a mixer at medium speed until well blended, about 5 minutes. Add the vanilla and egg white, beat well. Combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and stir until well blended.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide it in two. Roll each half into a log about 12 inches long. Place the logs about 3 inches apart on a cookie sheet or baking pan coated with cooking spray (I used parchment paper instead). Using the handle of a wooden spoon, make a 1/2 inch indentation down the length of each log. Spoon half of the apple butter into the center of each. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to a cutting board.
- Combine the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and almond extract. Stir well with a fork and drizzle over the logs. Cut each log diagonally into 12 slices, but don't pull the slices apart yet. Let rest on the cutting board for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool.
