(Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 large egg
- 3 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- colored sugar crystal, icing, candies, etc. for decorating
Preparation:
Beat butter until soft and creamy, about 2 minutes on medium speed of electric hand-held mixer. Add sugar gradually, beating well. Add egg and beat well. Combine flour, soda, salt, and cream of tartar; add to butter mixture, beating at low speed of mixer just until blended. Stir in vanilla. Shape dough into a ball, then roll to 1/4-inch thickness on waxed paper. With cookie cutters, cut dough into desired shapes and place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Sprinkle dough with sugar crystals before baking, if desired. Bake at 350° for 12 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool on wire racks and decorate as desired. Makes about 3 dozen cookies, depending on size.
