BUTTER COOKIES
(Yield: 4 dozen)
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon milk
2¾ cups self-rising flour
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add egg, milk, and vanilla; beat until well blended. Stir in flour
until dough forms. Cover; refrigerate for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray cookie sheets with non-stick
vegetable spray.
On a lightly floured board, roll dough to 1/8-inch thickness; cut
into desired shapes. Place, 1-inch apart, on prepared cookie sheets.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from
cookie sheets; cool completely on a wire rack. Decorate as desired.
