Divide dough in half; shape each half on lightly floured surface into 8-inch long square log with 1 1/2-inch sides. Wrap in plastic food wrap; refrigerate 2 hours or overnight until firm.
-
STEP 3
Heat oven to 325°F.

STEP 4
Cut logs into 1/4-inch square slices with sharp knife. Place squares 1 inch apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 6-8 minutes or until set.

Combine powdered sugar and 1/4 cup butter in bowl. Beat at low speed, adding enough liqueur for desired spreading consistency. Spread about 1 teaspoon filling on cookie, top with second cookie. Press together gently. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
Tip #1
- Make sure not to slice the cookie dough too thick or the cookies will not be crisp.
