My Fiance has been telling me about these cookies forever so I finally decided to try it, And mmm mmm good. So here it is folks. It is my new favorite. Note: You can also add a 1/4 cup cocoa and 1 tsp of salt. Or instead of putting jam in the nest put a Hershy's Kiss or use your favorite pie filling. Enjoy

How To Make best ever cornstarch cookies

  • 2
    Beat butter until smooth add vanilla a teaspoon at a time and mix until well blended. Refrigerate for 1 hour or they won't hold a shape.
  • 3
    Shape into 1 inch balls and place them 1 1/2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Now here you can either press them down with a lightly floured fork or I like to press the ball down with my thumb to make a nest and add a couple teaspoons of jam or a Hershys Kiss or if you like your favorite pie filling.
