Gnome Cookies

Directions

• In a large bowl, cream butter and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in the egg and extracts. Combine the flour, baking soda and cream of tartar; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.
• Divide dough into thirds. Shape each into a ball, then flatten into a disk. Place in a covered freezer container and freeze for 15 minutes or until easy to roll.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll 1 portion of dough into a 10-in. circle. Cut into 12 wedges. Place wedges 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake at 350° until edges are lightly browned, 10-13 minutes. Cool for 2 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
• To decorate: Spoon melted colored candy coating over pointed end of cookies; add marshmallow to point for hat. Let stand until set. Spoon melted white candy coating over remaining portion of cookies and sprinkle with coconut. Place a Sixlet for the nose; let stand until set. Store in an airtight container.
