AMISH SUGAR COOKIES

Here is a recipe I shared with my friend Linda. I told her it is old old old, but it's delicious! Here you go: AMISH SUGAR COOKIES 1 cup cooking oil 1 cup butter 1 cup sugar 1 cup powdered sugar 2 eggs 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 4 1/2 cups flour 1 teaspoon soda 1 teaspoon cream of tartar Recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of salt, but I only use ½ teaspoon. Directions Mix first 6 ingredients together; beat well. Fold in flour, soda, cream of tartar. Refrigerate 45 minutes. Roll in balls the size of walnuts, flatten with fork on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. They should be just lightly brown around the edge, Leave on the cookie sheet until they cool off - they will tear if they're removed from the pan out of the hot oven!) (I flatten with a cookie press dipped in sugar and use parchment paper on the ungreased pan) Tomorrow I will share another cookie recipe I made for a friend's birthday--Chocolate Peanut Butter Puffs....yum!
