1 cup shortening
2 cups sugar or a little less
3 eggs
1 1/2 tsps. vanilla
4 cups flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 cup milk
lemon juice from 2 lemons
Cream shortening and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Add well-beaten eggs, milk and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and slat. Then add to creamed mixture. Put dough into a cookie press and press cookies on baking sheets. I usually add sprinkles to the cookies to decorate them. You can use a little egg white on the cookies first to help the sprinkles stick, but it is fine to omit the egg white too. Bake 8 minutes in a 350 degrees oven.
