Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

  • â…” cup butter

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • ¼ cup milk

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Directions

  1. Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs.

  5. Remove from refrigerator and let dough come to room temperature. Roll out dough a chunk at a time (one dough log makes about 4 chunks).

  6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).

  7. Cut your cookies and decorate or bake plain for 8-10 minutes. Enjoy!
