Ingredients

  • Bonbons
  • 3  cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
  • 1  cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 2/3  cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4  cup milk
  • 1  teaspoon vanilla
  • 1  package (7- or 8-oz size) almond paste
  • Vanilla Bonbon Frosting
  • 1  cup powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2  tablespoons milk
  • 1  teaspoon vanilla
  • Chocolate Bonbon Frosting
  • 1  oz unsweetened baking chocolate, melted and cooled
  • 1  cup powdered sugar
  • 2  tablespoons milk
  • 1  teaspoon vanilla
  • Decoration
  • Betty Crocker® sugar sequins or other decors

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, beat all bonbon ingredients except almond paste with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon, until dough forms.
  2. 2Cut almond paste into 1/4-inch slices; cut each slice into fourths. Shape 1-inch ball of dough around each piece of almond paste. Gently roll to form ball. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
  3. 3Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set and bottom is golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  4. 4For vanilla frosting, in small bowl, stir all Vanilla Bonbon Frosting ingredients until smooth.
  5. 5For chocolate frosting, in small bowl, stir all Chocolate Bonbon Frosting ingredients until smooth. If necessary, stir in additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until soft enough to spread.
  6. 6Dip tops of cookies into frostings and sprinkle with decors as desired.
