COOKIES

Pre-heat oven to 350°. Soften butter in stand mixer, then add dry mix and egg, mixing until dough comes together. Roll out dough between 2 pieces of parchment or plastic wrap. Cut out cookies using cookie cutters or free form with a knife. If dough becomes warm or sticky, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour.

Remove excess dough around cookies and bake for 8 to 12 minutes until edges just start to brown. Let cookies cool.

CRUST

Crumble cookies for 1½ cups crumbs (about 8 large cookies). Use 4 TBSP softened butter or butter alternative, and combine with cookie crumbs.

Pat into 8” or 9” tart or pie pan and bake in pre-heated 350° oven for 8 minutes. Chill and fill with favorite pie fillings. FILLING SUGGESTION: Spread crust with sweetened cream cheese, fill with fresh berries, and then glaze with currant jelly.
