In a medium sized bowl, mix together flour and baking powder. Set aside. Mix butter and sugar until softened. Add eggs and continue mixing until blended; mix in liquor and extract. Add flour and mix until well blended. If the dough is too sticky, add additional flour as necessary.
-
Form dough into 3 loaves (Note: it may be necessary to wet hands while forming loaves,as dough is a bit sticky), approximately 9" long x 1 1/2" wide. Bake on a parchment-lined cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 1/2 hour, or until loaves are lightly golden. Remove from oven and place on cooling rack until warm and easy to handle. Slice each loaf diagonally into 3/4" slices. Place sliced cookies onto cookie sheet and return to oven for 5 - 8 minutes, or until lightly toasted.
-
While cookies are cooling, prepare glaze by stirring together confectioner's sugar, milk and extract. Add additional milk, a few drops at a time, if necessary.
-
Dip tops of cookies into glaze and stand upright on cooling rack. Sprinkle with non-pareils.
