List of Ingredients




2 c. sugar
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. shortening
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
4 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar

In large bowl combine sugar, butter, shortening, eggs and vanilla. In medium
bowl cream together flour, salt, baking soda and cream of tartar. Slowly add
flour mixture to cream mixture. Slowly add buttermilk. Let batter rest.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheets. Drop 1 tablespoon of
batter 2 inches apart, and bake for 10-12 minutes. Sprinkle sugar on the
ones you aren't planning to frost later. Use powdered sugar frosting; add
red and green food coloring to two bowls of frosting, leaving one bowl of
frosting white. Can sprinkle colored sugar on top, if desired.
