List of Ingredients




2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted or stirred before measuring
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup butter
1 cup granulated sugar

Recipe



Sift flour with salt, cream of tartar, baking soda, nutmeg, and cinnamon. In a large mixing bowl cream shortening and butter with sugar until light; beat in egg and milk. Stir in flour mixture.
Chill dough for 2 to 3 hours.

Roll dough out on a floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness or less. Cut with floured 2 to 2 1/2-inch cookie cutters and place on greased baking sheets. Brush lightly with the egg white and sprinkle with sugar. Bake at 375° for about 10 minutes, or until done.
