Ricotta Cheese Cookies

My friend W. (A Couple More Hours) asked me to post this recipe. While I can't vouch for it personally, she does have good tastes.




Ricotta Cheese Cookies
1/4 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 cup butter
2 cups flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla

Mix ingredients well with a spoon. Grease cookie sheets and drop cookies in 1 inch mounds from spoon. Bake 10-12 minutes at 350. Let cookies cool and frost.

Frosting
1 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
2 tbs milk
1 tsp vanilla

Stir together. Add food coloring if desired.

Dip newly iced cookies into colored sugar, rainbow dots or jimmies.

YUM!
