Cream Sugar Cookies Recipe

Cream Sugar Cookies

From morninlite 15 years ago

These are the cookies Grandma Weed made for me every time she came to visit. These go under the Beat & Eat frosting!

Thoroughly cream shortening, sugar, vanilla.
Add egg; beat til light and fluffy.
Stir in cream.
Sift together dry ingredients; blend in creamed mixture.
Divide dough in half. Chill 1 hour
~@~
On lightly floured surface roll to 1/8 inch.
Cut in desired shapes with cutters. Bake on greased cookie sheet at 375 about 6 to 8 minutes. Cool slightly remove from pan.
Cool on rack. Decorate.
~~@~~
To make these drop cookies, omit 1/2 cup flour. (Add 1 cup raisins or 1/2 cup broken nuts and 1/2 cup citron if you like) Drop from spoon onto cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 10 to 12 minutes. Makes 4 dozen.
