    Yields: 36 servings
    INGREDIENTS:
    3/4 cup butter flavored
    shortening
    1 cup white sugar
    2 eggs
    1 tablespoon milk
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt

    1 tablespoon butter
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
    3 tablespoons milk
    2 drops any color food coloring

    Recipe




    1. In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Cover dough, and chill for at least one hour.
    2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease cookie sheets, or line with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch in thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart onto cookie sheets.
    3. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove cookies from baking sheets to cool on wire racks. Cool completely before frosting.
    4. In a small bowl, beat the butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Mix in the milk one tablespoon at a time until a good spreading consistency is reached. Stir in food coloring to desired shade. Decorate cooled cookies, and set on waxed paper to harden.
