  • In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until crumbly, about 2 minutes.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

  • Beat just until combined.
  • Filled paper-lined muffin cups half full.
  • Bake at 325° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  • Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag; insert a small tip.
