- Cream sofft butter, adding sugar gradually.
- Add egg yolks, slowing blending. Add flour gradually.
- Work dough around a cherry to form a balll. I make mine about 1 inch across, but you can make them smaller or larger.
- Place on greased cookie sheet (or, on parchment) and bake slowly at 325 for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Cool completely. Then, shake in confectioners sugar.
- They are light, and melt-in-your-mouth good (especially with cold milk). Enjoy!
