| Measure | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 2 cups | Granulated sugar |
| 1 cup | Shortening |
| 3 | Whole eggs |
| 1 cup | Sour cream |
| 5 cups | Flour |
| 1 teaspoon | Baking soda |
| 1 teaspoon | Salt |
| 1 teaspoon | Baking powder |
| ½ teaspoon | Nutmeg |
Cream sugar and shortening. Add eggs and mix thoroughly. In a small bowl combine flour, soda, salt, baking powder and nutmeg. Alternately add dry ingredients and milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. (Dough will be stiff). Chill overnight. Roll out ½ inch thick and cut with large cookie cutter. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake 10-12 minutes in moderate (350) oven.
NOTES : Instead of dairy sour cream we always used 1 cup of milk to which 1 tablespoon of vinegar had been added.
