INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup solid shortening (butter flavored preferred)
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
DIRECTIONS:
Cream shortening, sugar, eggs and vanilla in large mixer
bowl at medium speed of electric mixer until light and
creamy. Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add to
creamed mixture, mixing on low speed until well blended.
Cover dough and chill 1 hour, if desired, for easy rolling.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll half of dough at a time.
Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch
thickness. Using a cookie cutter, cut in desired shapes.
Place on ungreased baking sheets. Roll leftover pieces.
Sprinkle with colored decorations or leave plain to
decorate when cool. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10
minutes, or until edges are light brown. (Time will vary
with cookie size.) Cool slightly, then remove to cooling
rack. Cool completely before decorating.
Yield: about 36 cookies: varies with cookie size
