List of Ingredients




1 c. butter or margarine, softened
1 c. shortening
2 1/2 c. sifted powdered sugar
6 hard-cooked egg yolks, mashed
2 tsp. baking soda 2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract

Recipe



Cream butter and shortening; gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks,
soda, cream of tartar and vanilla, beating well. Gradually add flour. Divide dough into 4 equal portions.
Color one portion red, one yellow, one green and leave remaining dough plain. Wrap each separately in plastic wrap and chill at least an hour. Hand shape cookies into desired designs or roll dough out to 1/4-inch thickness on ungreased baking sheets and cut with cookie cutters.
Remove dough scraps. Bake at 350° F. for 8 to 10 minutes.

Yield: 5 1/2 dozen (2 1/2-inch) cookies
