This is an old recipe from the American Woman's Cookbook, originally published in 1938. It was my dad's favorite cookie. Time includes chilling time.

Directions:
1. Beat butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
2. Mix in flour.
3. Wrap dough and chill for about 1 hour, or until firm enough to roll out.
4. Preheat oven to 325°.
5. Roll dough out on lightly floured board.
6. Cut out cookies.
7. Place on ungreased baking sheets.
8. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until lightly browned at edges.
