1 c. butter or margarine
1/2 c. sugar
1-3/4 c. flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla, lemon or almond extract
Cream butter, sugar and extract until fluffy.
Add flour 1/4 cup at a time and mix thoroughly between each
addition.
Wrap in waxed paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1
hour.
Roll out on floured board to 1/4 inch thickness.
Lift carefully onto ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes at
325 degrees.
Sprinkle with sugar while still hot from the oven then let them cool
and enjoy.
I can remember these cookies from the elementary school that I
attended in Oklahoma in the 1940's and 1950's.
