This cookie recipe has been handed down from my Great Great Grandma who would bake huge batches of these and then sell them from a large jar on her front step! Ingredients:
1 c butter |
1/2 c brown sugar |
1/2 c white sugar |
1 tsp baking soda |
2 tsp cream of tartar |
1 egg |
3 c all-purpose flour |
Directions:
1. Cream together butter and sugars.
2. Add egg and blend.
3. Combine flour, cream of tartar, and baking soda then stir into sugar mixture.
4. For into a shaggy dough ball and turn out onto counter and knead for about 5 minutes or until dough comes together.
5. Roll and cut desired shapes then bake in a 350 oven for 10 minutes or untilo golden brown.
6. Cool on racks.
7. Great Great Gramma's instructions when she wrote out this recipe said simply: Mix it all together and knead it if you have time. :)
