Kourabiedes

Kourabiedes are the favorite cookie of many Greeks - a rich, short cookie covered with powdered sugar.  They are made for all festive occasions.

What you need

1 pound whipped sweet butter
    at room temperature
3/4 cup of confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract		 2 tablespoons brandy
4.5 cups all-purpose flour
confectioners' sugar for dusting

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Whip butter until white.  Slowly add 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract and brandy.  Gradually add flour, 1 cup at a time.  Shape small crescents or low half-circles and place on ungreased cookie sheets.  Bake for 20 minutes or until cookies are sand colored.

Sift confectioners' sugar onto a large sheet of wax paper.   Upon removing cookies from oven, carefully place on sugar and sift additional sugar over tops and sides.  Cool thoroughly on racks before storing.
