Grandma's Homemade Sugar Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Butter
  • 1/2 cup Shortening
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup Milk
  • 3 1/2 cups Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions

  1. Mix all ingredients.
  2. Roll out dough on a floured surface until about 1/4" thick. Cut out with cookie cutters.
  3. Bake 350 for 8-10 minutes on greased baking sheet. Do not overcook. I usually take them out of the oven a minute before I think they're done and then let them sit on the hot pan for a few minutes out of the oven before removing them.
