Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
¼ | cup | Prune butter, * see note |
1 | cup | Sugar |
2 | Eggs | |
2 | cups | All-purpose flour |
½ | cup | Cocoa |
1 | teaspoon | Baking powder |

Directions
In a large bowl, beat prune butter, sugar and eggs on medium speed of electric mixer. Stir together flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to butter mixture, beating until well blended. Cover; refrigerate dough until firm enough to handle.
Preheat oven to 350 F. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to ⅛-inch thickness; cut with star-shapped cookie cutter (can use menorah, dreidel and others). Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 5 to 7 minute, or until no imprint remains when touched lightly in the center. Cool 1 minute; remove cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
NOTES : Substituted prune butter for ½ cup butter or margarine, softened.
