Recipe - Christmas Cookies

Three fourths cup Sugar
One half cup Melted butter
2 Eggs beaten
1 teaspoon Vanila
2 cup Sifted flour
1 teaspoon Cream of tartar
One half teaspoon Baking soda
One half teaspoon Salt

Blend sugar and shortening welll. Stir in beaten eggs and vanila. Sift
and mix dry ingredients and add to butter mixture, blending well. Chill.
Turn on to lightly blouredboard and roll to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut with
floured cutters.

Before baking, I sprinkle colored sugar on to the cookies. It sticks and
then there's no need for frosting, unless you would rather have it.

On greased cookie sheets, bake in dg.375 oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
