Lavender cookies with no lavender!

So I saw this recipe in a book (duh) and they were really cute but they didn't have any lavender in it which was weird because that is what they are called.  Anyway they are very delicious!

What you need:
1 stick softened butter
1/4 cup caster sugar
1 1/2 cups flour

Frosting:
4 tbsp butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 scant cup powdered sugar
purple sprinkles or sugar with purple food coloring in them

1. Dice the butter and put it in a mixing bowl with the sugar and flour.  Mix until it forms a paste dough.
2.  Knead the dough and wrap it in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
3.  Pre-heat oven to 350.  Roll out the dough and cut very small circles out.  I used the back of a big piping tip.
4. Bake them for 7-10 minutes.
5.  Mix all the frosting ingredients together and put the frosting in a piping bag.  Pipe a small dot on the cookie and sprinkle them with the sugar/sprinkles.

Enjoy!<3
