I made these cookies last week and they were so good that I just HAVE to blog about them! I have NEVER been able to make good sugar cookies, so I was super excited. These were so soft and just perfect. I tweaked the recipe a little and this is what I ended up with. You have to try these.
2/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2/3 cup butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, shortening and sugars. Stir in the eggs and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt, stir into the creamed mixture until dough comes together.
Roll dough into walnut sized balls. Place them on an ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes until bottom is light brown. Remove from baking sheets to cool on wire racks.
