Preparation

Step 1

Beat eggs in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until foamy.
Gradually beat in sugar. Stir in whipping cream. Stir in flour, baking
powder and salt. Cover and refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm.

Heat oven to 375º. Grease cookie sheet. Roll half of dough at a time into
rectangle, 12 × 8 inches, on lightly floured surface. Cut into 2-inch
squares. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Make two 1/2-inch cuts on
all sides of each square. Bake 10 to 13 minutes or until edges are light
brown. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.


NOTES : Make It Your Way

Stir 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips into dough and make speckled

Chocolate Chip Cream Squares.

Another variation, Coffee Bean Mocha Squares provide a delicious
mocha (chocolate and coffee) flavor. Mix dough, except reduce
flour to 3 3/4 cups and add 1/4 cup cocoa. Roll and cut dough into
2-inch squares, but don't make side cuts. After cookies are baked
and cooled, frost with a double batch of Mocha Frosting (see
Frosted Cinnamon-Mocha Cookies recipe) and press a
chocolate-covered coffee bean in the center of each.
