Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup fat
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 3 cups flour
• 3 teaspoons baking-powder
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup sugar

Instructions

Cream the butter and add the sugar and well-beaten eggs. Then add the milk alternately with the sifted dry flour (sifted with baking-powder). Mix to the consistency of a soft dough, adding more milk if necessary. Roll lightly, cut in shapes, and dip in the one-half cup of sugar and cinnamon that have been sifted together. Place on buttered sheets and bake in a hot oven for about 10 minutes. Slip from the pan and lay on the cake cooler. To make a softer cookie, use only one-half cup of butter. (Three to four dozen.)
