Soft Sugar Cookies

Soft Sugar Cookies



5 c. sifted flour
1/2 t. salt
1 t. baking soda
 2 c. sugar
 1 c. butter or shortening ( I use butter)
2 eggs
4 t. grated orange rind, optional
 1 t. vanilla
2/3 c. sour cream
(or sour canned milk by adding 2 tbsp vinegar and let stand a few minutes)

Sift together flour, salt and soda.  Cream sugar, shortening and eggs.  Add flavoring.  Beat.  Add sour cream and flour. Blend well.  Chill 1 hour.  Roll out 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.  Cut forms and place on cookie sheets.  Bake 12-15 minutes or until very slightly browned.  Remove and cool on wire racks before decorating.


Bake 350-375' for 12-15 minutes
