Directions:

  1. In large mixing bowl, cream butter, shortening, and sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well.
  3. Gradually add water and vanilla.
  4. Sift together dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt), and add to batter.

  8. Bake at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  9. Cool for 2 minutes before removing to wire rack.
  10. Store in airtight container at room temperature, or freeze for future enjoyment!
