Hidden Treasure Cookies


Use an assortment of candy centers so that each cookie contains a different candy treasure.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup margarine or butter
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

Small candies (small gumdrops, jelly beans, candy-coated chocolate and peanut butter pieces
Brightly colored sugar or small multicolor decorative candies

 

Beat margarine or butter in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds.

Add the sugar and baking powder and beat till combined.

Beat in egg yolk, vanilla, and almond extract, if desired, till combined.

Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer on medium speed, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Stir in any remaining flour with a wooden spoon. Do not chill dough.

Shape a rounded teaspoon of dough around a small candy.

Roll in colored sugar or decorative candies.

Place cookies 2" apart on a greased cookie sheet.

Bake in a 375 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes or till edges are firm but not brown.

Cool cookies on a wire rack.

Makes about 30.
