Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 c shortening
2 c sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
3 c flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Cream sugar and shortening. Add eggs and vanilla-mix well. Sift flour, baking powder and salt. Combine with shortening mixture. Knead dough until it can be rolled out on a floured board. Roll about 1/8 inch thick, cut out and place cut 'cookies' on ungreased sheet pans/cookie sheets and bake until edges are just golden. (About 10-12 minutes) Middle of cookie should be fairly light. The longer baked, and the browner the cookie, the crisper it will be.
