Princess Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Using electric mixer, beat butter, oil, 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup powdered sugar in large bowl until well blended. Mix in egg and vanilla. Sift flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt over and mix in. Gently fold in raisins. Cover mixture and chill until firm, about 30 minutes or up to 1 day. Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 2 heavy large baking sheets. Take one mini marshmellow, and roll 1 tablespoon dough into ball around the marshmellow. Place on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining marshmellows and dough, spacing balls evenly on sheets. Bake cookies until light brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer cookies to racks and cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl until thoroughly combined. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until creamy, about 5 minutes, then beat in eggs, one at a time, incorporating each before adding the next. Beat in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Gently mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Chill the dough about 30 minutes.
• Scoop up about 1 1/2 teaspoon of dough per cookie, gently form into a ball, and place the balls onto baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are set and just beginning to brown at the edges, about 8 minutes; cool on baking sheets for 1 minute before removing to finish cooling on racks.
