Instructions
Instructions
- For the Cookies, preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment; set aside. Mix flour, pudding mix, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, baking soda and nutmeg in medium bowl; set aside.
- Beat butter and sugars in large bowl with electric mixer on medium-high speed 2 to 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add egg, egg yolk and vanilla; beat 2 to 3 minutes longer or well blended, scraping sides of bowl, as needed.
- Gradually add flour mixture, beating on low speed just until dough comes together, up to 1 minute. Stir in English Toffee Finishing Sugar, mixing just until combined. Scoop dough in 1/3-cup portions onto prepared baking sheets, placing about 2-inches apart.
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes until cookies have spread and edges are golden brown. Cool on pans 1 minute. Transfer to wire racks to cool at least 10 minutes.
- For the Icing, whisk confectioners’ sugar and milk in small bowl until smooth (add additional milk or confectioners’ sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, to reach desired consistency). Spread icing on cooled cookies and sprinkle with additional English Toffee Finishing Sugar. Let stand 5 minutes to allow icing to set.
Recipe Tips:
- To spice things up, add a splash of McCormick® Rum Extract. Substitute 1 teaspoon Rum Extract + 1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract in place of just vanilla.
- For a little extra texture or ‘crunch’ in your cookies, substitute turbinado sugar or sugar in the raw in place of light brown sugar.
- No vanilla pudding mix? – No problem! Add an additional 1/4 cup flour in place of the pudding mix.
