How to Make Jubilee Jumble Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened shortening, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 cup sour cream and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If the dough is too soft, chill for 30 minutes before proceeding.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving approximately 2 inches between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While cookies cool, prepare the glaze: Melt ¼ cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until golden brown. Remove from heat.
  9. Whisk in 2 cups powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
  10. Gradually add 2-4 tablespoons of hot water, one tablespoon at a time, until the glaze reaches your desired consistency. It should be pourable but not too runny.
  11. Once the cookies are completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top. Allow the glaze to set before serving.
