Ingredients
1
package (16 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Ready to Bake!™ Sugar Cookie Dough (24 Count)
1/3
cup baking cocoa
4
tablespoons Irish cream-flavored coffee syrup or Irish cream-flavored creamer
1 1/4
cups mixed nuts, chopped
2
cups powdered sugar
3
tablespoons unsalted or salted butter
1/2
teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1
to 2 tablespoons milk
Preparation
Heat oven to 350°F. Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix cookie dough, cocoa and 2 tablespoons of the flavored syrup with wooden spoon or knead with hands until well blended. Stir in 3/4 cup of the nuts. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto cookie sheets.
Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until edges are set. Cool 5 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in medium bowl, beat powdered sugar, butter, remaining 2 tablespoons flavored syrup, vanilla and enough milk for desired frosting consistency with electric mixer on medium speed 2 minutes or until smooth.
Frost cooled cookies; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup nuts. Store loosely covered.
