Time 3h45m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons Betty Crocker™ yellow sugar
2 tablespoons Betty Crocker™ blue sugar
96 small pretzel twists
2 tablespoons sliced almonds
1 tube (4.25 oz) Betty Crocker™ yellow decorating icing
1 tube (4.25 oz) Betty Crocker™ pink decorating icing

Steps:

  • In large bowl, beat butter with electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Add sugar; beat until creamy, scraping bowl frequently. Stir in milk, vanilla, almond extract and salt. Stir in flour until well mixed.
  • Measure 1/2 cup of dough into resealable food-storage plastic bag; refrigerate. Divide remaining dough in half; roll each into a 6-inch log. Roll 1 log in yellow sugar; roll other log in blue sugar. Wrap logs separately in plastic wrap or waxed paper. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Heat oven to 350°F. For each cookie, place 2 pretzels with flat sides touching on ungreased large cookie sheets, 3 inches apart. Cut dough into 48 (1/4-inch) slices. (If dough cracks, allow to sit at room temperature a few minutes.) To make angel body, fold in opposite sides at top of each slice to make triangular-shaped body; place each slice on top of 2 pretzels, so double rounds of pretzels form angel wings at each side. Press lightly into pretzels. Using reserved dough from plastic bag, roll 1/2 teaspoon dough into ball; place on top for head of each angel. Press 2 sliced almonds into dough to make song book. Repeat to make 48 cookies.
  • Bake 11 to 14 minutes or until edges are firm and just begin to brown. Cool 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
  • Pipe yellow icing on cooled cookies to make eyes and hair. Use pink decorating icing to draw mouths. Let stand until frosting is set.
