    *Shortening, Crisco, 8 tbsp
    Egg, fresh, 1 large
    Sour Cream, 1 cup
    Baking Powder, 1 tsp
    Baking Soda, 1
    Vanilla Extract, 1 tsp
    *Flour, white, 3 cup

Tips

Do not roll the dough too thin. Too thin of cookies will make the cookies hard and crispy.


Directions

Mix ingredients well and refrigerate covered, overnight. The next day, heat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out dough to slightly more than 1/4 inch, flouring lightly to prevent sticking. Use a glass to cut out circles, place on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle with additional sugar on tray. Bake 8 minutes and then check. Continue baking till edges are just starting to brown. Cookies will puff up as they bake. Loosen from tray as soon as they come out of the oven, but allow to cool on the cookie sheet for several minutes before removing to cooling trays. Store in a sealed container. Makes 3 dozen cookies.
