3/4 c. butter
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
3/4 c. sifted powdered sugar

Candy coated milk chocolate covered peanuts, gumdrops, jelly beans and or candy coated milk chocolate pieces.

Turn oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixer bowl beat butter with electric mixer on medium speed until softened (about 30 seconds). Add sugar and salt and beat until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. With mixer on low speed gradually beat in flour until well mixed.

Shape dough into 1" balls. Press a piece of desired candy in center of each and shape the dough around it so you can't see the candy. Place balls about 2" apart on ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake in the 350 degree oven about 15 minutes or until edges are golden. Place powdered sugar in a plastic bag. With a pancake turner transfer 2 or 3 cookies at a time to the bag of powdered sugar. Gently shake cookies in powdered sugar until coated. When cool, gently shake cookies again in powdered sugar. Makes about 36 cookies.
