~ Irish Whiskey Cookies ~
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup Irish whiskey
1/4 cup candied citron, chopped
1/4 cup golden raisins, blanched and chopped
1/4 cup almonds, chopped
Preheat oven to 375F.
Grease two cookie sheets; set aside. In a small mixing bowl,
cream together the butter and the sugar. Beat in the eggs
until well blended. Add the flour and the Irish whiskey, and
beat the dough until smooth. Add the fruit and nuts, and mix
well. Drop cookie dough from a tablespoon onto the prepared
cookie sheets. Bake each sheet of cookies for 8 - 10 minutes.
Remove the cookies from the baking sheets with a spatula while
still warm. Place on wire rack to partially cool. Store the
cookies in an airtight container with a slice of white bread
to maintain their soft, fruity texture.
