This is another old family recipe not sure where it came from but the original recipe called for lard hence the grease cookie name. They turn out very light and melt in your mouth. The batter is perfect for spooning on the cookie sheet or my favorite a mini ice cream scoop or a cookie dough gun. Ingredients:
1 cup butter |
1 cup crisco |
1 cup sugar |
1 cup powdered sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 eggs |
4 cups flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon cream of tartar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. Cream together eggs, butter, both sugars, crisco, and vanilla.
3. In separate bowl mix dry ingredients and slowly add to the wet.
4. Spoon on to cookie sheets.
5. You can roll each dough ball in sugar or icing them later if desired.
6. Bake at 375 for 12-15 minutes.
