Christmas cookie house recipe?

Question

About 5 years ago, Land O Lakes butter had a cookie house recipe on the inside of it's box. Does anyone still have the recipe? I remember it having almost a pound of butter and tons of powdered sugar, but have lost the recipe. I have searched the land o lakes site but wasn't successful. If anyone has it I would be very greatful. Thanks!

Oh, and it WAS NOT a gingerbread recipe. It was some kind of butter cookie almost shortbread.

Sorry, I can't find the one you are referring to, but here's some others if it helps...the first link has templates for the house. I've also included my Mother's recipe for Sugar Cookies.
