Ingredients

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup shortening

1 cup sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 tsp cream of tarter

1/2 tsp baking soda

2 cups all purpose flour

Preparation

Mix ingredients and roll into balls. Then flatten with sugar coated flat surface (bottom of a glass works fine once you’ve smeared some dough on the bottom of the glass so the sugar sticks). Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes(or when the edges brown, you know they’re done). During the holidays, mix green, red and white sugars and they’re festive as well as delicious.
