Cyclops Eyes (Butter Cookies)

1 Stick butter
3/4 c Sugar
1 Egg
1/2 ts Vanilla
Some powdered sugar
1 tb Milk
1/4 ts Baking powder
1 1/2 c Flour
1 Bag red hots

Cream butter, sugar. Add egg, vanilla, milk; beat until very smooth. Add flour, baking powder; beat until very smooth again. Refrigerate until stiff enough to roll into small balls about the diameter of a quarter, which will take at least an hour. Flatten; place on cookie tray (spray first with Pam if tray isn't non-stick). Push a red hot into the center of each (it will rise and try to pop out while baking). Bake at 350 until red hots just start to bubble (bottoms of cookies will be just turned brown). This will take 5-8 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with powdered sugar while still warm. Makes lots.
