Grandma Mary Lou McCoy's Sour Dough Cookies

Post date: Jan 27, 2009 2:07:34 AM

1 cup butter

2 cups sugar

3 eggs

1 cup milk (use a tbsp. of vinegar in the cup to curdle the milk)

1/2 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. vanilla

1/4 tsp. salt

Approximately 4-5 cups of flour, give or take to make stiff dough

Directions:

Add the vinegar to the milk and allow to sit for a while. Cream the butter and sugar. Add remaining ingredients and then add enough flour to make a stiff dough - typically between 4 - 41/2 cups of flour. Roll with a rolling pin and cut into desired shapes. Bake in 375 oven until just lightly golden brown, about 8 minutes. Frost with powdered sugar frosting.
