Grandmother's Sugar Cookies
1 cup of butter.
2 cups of sugar.
2 eggs.
1 cup of milk.
2 teaspoonfuls of baking-powder.
1/2 teaspoonful of vanilla.
Flour enough to roll out easily.
Rub the butter and sugar to a cream; put in the milk, then the eggs beaten
together lightly, then two cups of flour, into which you have sifted the
baking-powder; then the vanilla.
Take a bit of this and put it on the floured board and see if it "rolls out
easily,'' and, if it does not, but is soft and sticky, put in a handful more
of flour. T
hese cookies must not be any stiffer than you can help, or they will not be
good, so try not to use any more flour than you must.
