3 Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until firm but not browned. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 10 minutes.
4 Place waxed paper on counter under cooling rack. In small, deep microwavable bowl or measuring cup, microwave cream uncovered on High about 15 seconds or until warm. Stir in 2 teaspoons coffee powder until dissolved. Using wire whisk, beat in powdered sugar until no lumps remain. Dip one end of each log into glaze. Place on cooling rack, allowing glaze to drip through rack, until glaze is dry, about 30 minutes.

We liked this recipe but it did take a while to make them. In order to get them all baked at the same time I used a pizza stone, which was not good. The cookies on the stone came out softer and they broke in two when I tried to dip them in the frosting. Otherwise, this is a great recipe and the cookies look like store bought and make a great gift to friends who are into coffee.
