CREAM WAFERS 
1 c. soft butter
2 c. flour

Cut into 1 1/2 inch rounds. Transfer rounds with spatula to piece of waxed paper that is heavily covered with sugar.

CREAMY FILLING:

Cream 1/4 cup soft butter, 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla until smooth and fluffy. Tint with few drops of food coloring. Add a few drops of water if necessary.
