Steps:
- 1. Sift together flour, salt, baking powder. Set aside. Cream together shortening, butter, sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Beat in flour, then milk. Chill covered for 25 minutes.
- 2. Roll out half dough to about 1/8 inch on well floured surface. If too sticky add a little more flour. Just make sure your surface is well floured...you can always dust extra off cookie. Cut with 3 inch cookie cutter. I made mine larger, therefore less cookies. Place cookies 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheet or as I did on parchment paper. Add 1/2 - 1 tablespoon cherry filling. Roll out remaining dough and cut tops for filled cookies.
- 3. Crimp with fork tines around edges. Cut a slit on top to release steam or poke with tines of fork.
- 4. Bake at 375 degree F for 12 - 15 minutes or until starting to turn golden on edges. Cool on cooling rack. Store in container with lid.
