3 \N | Whole eggs |
1 cup | Sour cream |
5 cups | Flour |

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.

NOTES : Instead of dairy sour cream we always used 1 cup of milk to which 1 tablespoon of vinegar had been added.
