By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, melted
• 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 5 cups all-purpose flour
• 4 eggs
• 1 pound cottage cheese, undrained
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 4 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat cookie sheets with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine melted butter, granulated sugar, salt, baking powder, flour, and eggs until blended. Stir in cottage cheese, milk, and vanilla.

Roll dough into 1-1/2-inch balls and place on prepared cookie sheets. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden. Let stand 2 minutes; then sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and cool on a wire rack.

Notes:
These cookies don't freeze well, so you'd better invite a whole gang over to help eat 'em all!
