St. Patty's Day


As requested, here is the highly coveted
Sugar Cookie recipe that I use.

Bon apetite!


1 cup soft (unsalted) butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 1/2 cups flour (sifted)
3 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar

Cream butter and vanilla, add sugar and stir until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, beating after each.
Add dry ingredients together in sifter, then add to mixture.

Chill 3-4 hours.

Roll out on floured surface.
Bake at 375 degrees for 6 minutes. (Or less!)

Icing:
4 cups powdered sugar (also called confectioner's sugar)
1 stick oleo (this is butter, Ms. Angie)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup milk
