2 sticks of butter
2 eggs
2 cups sugar

Mix first three ingredients and blend together. Mix dry ingredients, then mix all together. Knead with a little more flour, roll out and cut. Bake at 350 until golden, about 15 minutes depending on how thick you cut them. Makes a large batch. You can cut this recipe in half and it works well too.
