    Decorated Cookie Recipe


    Source of Recipe


    internet

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 C. Butter (no Substitutes)
    1 C. Sugar
    1/2 C. White Crisco (I use the Sticks)
    2 eggs
    4 T. milk
    1 t. baking soda
    1 t. vanilla
    4 C. Flour

    Recipe



    Dissolve baking soda in the milk. Set aside. Beat together butter, sugar, crisco, and the eggs, then add the baking soda mixture. Mix well, add vanilla and the flour, mix well.

    Roll out on floured surface to desired thickness and cut with cookie cutters (I like mine thick), place on cookie sheet bake 8 min. at 350 degrees. Don't let them brown.

    This recipe also has an alternative option, I will add a little more flour to the mix, then use a small icecream scoop and drop them on the cookie sheet and flatten with a floured bottom of a cup or glass. This works great if you're in a hurry, then just bake as before.

    Cookie Frosting

    1/3 C. soft butter (no substitutes)
    1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
    3 C. powder sugar
    2 Tbs. milk

    Use electric mixer and whip together. You can separate in different bowls and add food coloring for holidays.

    I can't make enough of these at anytime, that's why I started using the ice cream scoop, no rolling makes them bake up fast....
