Rootbeer Cookies

Ingredients
2 cups brown sugar

1 cup butter

2 eggs

1/2 cup water

2 teaspoons rootbeer flavoring

3 1/2 cups flour

1 teaspoon soda





In bowl whisk flour and soda.

 In mixer cream the butter and sugar for 2-3 minutes. Beat in eggs. Mix root beer flavoring with the water and alternately add the flour with water mixture. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour. The dough will still feel really soft, but works fine.

 Heat oven to 400 degrees. Drop dough onto cookie sheets with a cookie scoop. Bake 6-8 minutes. Let them cook long enough or will be too soft when they cool. Cool on wire racks.

 When the cookies are cool frost.

2 cups powdered sugar

1/3 cup butter
 (softened)
1 1/2 teaspoons rootbeer flavoring

2 tablespoons hot water

Mix rootbeer flavoring with hot water. In a mixer beat all ingredients until creamy.
