Preparation
Step 1
Mix shortening and sugar together. Blend on high for a few minutes to get light and fluffy.
Add remaining ingredients alternating dry with wet.
Roll out fairly thick, cut out with cookie cutters. Bake 400 degrees F. 8-10 minutes.
NOTE: Button shaped cookies can be made by cutting out the dough with a circle (use the op of a juice glass) and then frost with pastel colored frosting (yellow, pink, baby blue). Thread and holes are then pied on in a coordinating color frosting. Very cute for a baby shower.
