List of Ingredients




3 1/4 C. sifted all-purpose flour
1 t. soda
1/2 t. salt
1/2 C. butter or margarine at room temperature
1 C. sugar
1 egg, unbeaten
1 1/2 t. vanilla
1 t. nutmeg
1/2 C. thick sour cream

Recipe



Sift together flour, soda and salt. Combine butter, sugar, egg and flavoring in mixing bowl. Beat on beat-whip speed 2 minutes. Stop, scrape bowl. Add sour cream and half the flour mixture, blending it in on fold-blend speed. Then mix on beat-whip speed 1 minute. Stop and scrape bowl. Add remaining flour and stir in by hand. Chill for 1 hour.

Set oven at 400°F. to preheat. Divide dough in half and roll each part on lightly floured surface to fourth-inch thickness. Sprinkle with sugar and roll it in lightly.

Cut dough with a cookie cutter. Using pancake turner, lift cutouts to greased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until golden brown. Cool. Decorate with icing.

Makes about five dozen cookies depending on size cutters used.
