2 tsp. soda
2 tsp. cream of tartar
2 tsp. vanilla
6 cups flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup shortening
2 cups sugar
1 cup milk
Mix all ingredients together. Dough will be stiff. Roll out and cut with cookie cutters. Bake 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees.
This recipe came from my roommate at college. The cool thing about her recipe is that it didn't call for eggs because sometimes, ya just don't have eggs in the refrigerator. She came from a huge family, twelve kids as I recall. Which means that THIS recipe is huge! It makes a lot of cookies, so beware!
They are delicious frosted or even plain...very soft and light.
