Peppermint Meltaways

These are really good cookies; they'd be just as good without the peppermint added. If desired, you can crush a mint/candy cane and sprinkle it on the tops. 

 Peppermint Meltaways

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup powder sugar
1/2 tsp peppermint extract
1-1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup corn starch
Frosting:
2 TBS butter, softened
1-1/2 cups powder sugar
2 TBS milk
1/4 tsp peppermint extract
For cookies:
Preheat oven to 350; and spray cookie sheet with nonstick spray. Cream the butter and sugar; add the peppermint extract. Mix the flour and cornstarch together, then mix it into the butter mixture. Shape into balls and place on cookie sheet (I used a cookie scoop). Bake 10-12 minutes; or until lightly brown. Remove from oven and remove cookies from cookie sheet; allow them to cool completely then spread frosting on each.
For frosting; beat the butter then add the remaining ingredient. Beat until smooth. Yields: 2 dozen cookies.
