Grandma's Sugar Cookies

I am fortunate to have come from a long line of wonderful cooks!  Both of my Grandmothers were / are outstanding.  My 97 yr. old Grandmother still cooks & bakes on almost a daily basis.  They each have their own Sugar Cookie Recipe, this is my Grandma Schneider's recipe, we love them at this house and hope you do too! 





1 C Granulated Sugar
1 C Powdered Sugar
1 C Butter - softened

1 C Oil (I use Canola)
2 Eggs (Large)
1 t Cream of Tarter
1 t Baking Soda
1 t Salt

1 t Vanilla
4 C + 2 T Flour

Cream together the sugar & butter.  Add eggs, vanilla & oil, beat again.  Sift together flour, cream of tarter, baking soda, salt - add to batter and beat well.  Put in the refrigerator for 2 hours to chill.  Remove from refrigerator, preheat oven to 375*.  Drop by teaspoon on baking sheet, flatten with a glass dipped in sugar (wet the bottom of glass and dip in sugar).  Bake until edges are browned 5 - 7 minutes. 

*Note:  I use a Polish Pottery Cutting Board to bake cookies. 



Enjoy!
