Ingredients

For the cookies:

1/2 cup Hiland butter softened
1 1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup Hiland sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

For the glaze:

2 cups powdered sugar sifted
4+ teaspoons Hiland heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

Make the cookies:

Preheat oven to 350°. Line rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
In a large bowl beat together Hiland butter and sugar until well combined. Add eggs and whisk until blended. Add Hiland sour cream and vanilla and continue to whisk until well combined. Add flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda and stir with a whisk until combined. Finish stirring with a rubber spatula, scraping down the sides of the bowl until all ingredients are incorporated.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto prepared pan about 2 inches apart and bake until edges are lightly browned, about 10 - 12 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.

Glaze the cookies:

Stir sifted powdered sugar, Hiland heavy cream and vanilla in a small bowl until well combined. Spread onto cooled cookies.

Notes

— I use a small cookie scoop. — You can make this glaze as thick or thin as you would like. If glaze is too thick add more heavy cream, if glaze is too thin add more powdered sugar. — Allow butter, eggs and sour cream to come to room temperature, for best results. -
