We made these in 12 dozen batches during the Holiday season, they didn't last long!
A Facebook acquaintance was looking for a recipe for roll out sugar cookies you cut out and frost.
Here is my Mom's recipe from her ancient Cookbook, much stained and worn with use:
- 3/4 cup shortning or butter
- 1c Sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 t vanilla
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1t baking powder
- 1t salt
Thoroughly mix and refrigerate one hour, roll out thin and cut with cutters, place on ungreased sheet
bake at 400 for 6 to 8 minutes.
Frosting:
- 3c powdered sugar
- 1/3c margarine/shortening or butter
- 1 1/2 t vanilla
- about 2 T milk
Mix powdered sugar and margarine. Still in vanilla and milk, beating until frosting is smooth and spreading consistency.
