Versatile sugar cookies for creative decorating.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large bowl, mix the shortening and white sugar until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, and cream of tartar; fold into the sugar mixture to make a dough. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to create desired shapes. Arrange cookies 1 1/2 inches apart on cookie sheets.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, then let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
