    List of Ingredients




    Old-fashioned Sugar Cookies


    * 3 1/2 cups sifted flour
    * 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    * 3/4 teaspoon salt
    * 1/2 cup butter or margarine
    * 1/2 cup shortening
    * 1 2/3 cups sugar
    * 2 eggs
    * 3 teaspoons vanilla

    Recipe




    Sift flour with baking powder and salt.

    Cream butter and shortening together.

    Gradually add sugar and beat until light and fluffy.

    Add eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition.

    Add vanilla.

    Gradually add the flour mixture, blending thoroughly after each addition.

    Roll dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter and place about 2 inches apart on greased cookies sheets.

    Using a flat-bottomed glass or a jar cover, buttered and dipped in sugar, press cookies to measure about 3 inches in diameter, 1/8 inch thick.

    Bake at 400° for 6-8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
