STEPS

1

Heat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.

2

In a large bowl, beat 1 cup shortening, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Scrape sides if necessary.

3

Add flour, baking soda, baking powder, and cream of tartar. Mix on low speed until well combined. Add 2 tablespoons Almondmilk and beat until smooth.

4

Form into 1 ¼-inch balls, using rounded tablespoonfuls of dough. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.

5

Place 3 to 4 tablespoons granulated sugar in a small bowl. Spray the flat bottom of a measuring cup or glass with cooking spray, dip in sugar, and flatten each cookie. Dip into sugar every other time.

6

Lightly brush tops of cookies with remaining Almondmilk and sprinkle with decorator sugar or sprinkles if desired.

7

Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes or until edges start to brown. Cool on cookie sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer to cooling racks.

8

For frosting, beat powdered sugar, ¾ cup shortening, vanilla, and 3 tablespoons Almondmilk with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened. Beat on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy. Add Almondmilk as needed for spreading consistency.

9

Tint frosting with food coloring as desired and frost cooled cookies.
