Cracked Sugar Cookies II image

These are very tender cookies. Should you want to alter them for a later date add different flavor extracts. I got this recipe years ago when I was a girl scout.

Time P1DT1h23m

Yield 66

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup shortening
1 ½ cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup white sugar for decoration

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and 1 1/2 cups sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until well blended. Cover dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll dough into 1 inch balls and roll the balls in the remaining sugar. Place cookies 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
  • Bake for 8 to 9 minutes in the preheated oven, or until just barely golden. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

These cookies are perfect for freezing. I always have a batch of these cookies in the freezer so I can have a fresh-baked cookie whenever I want.

These cookies are a great make-ahead dessert. You can make them a few days in advance and store them in an airtight container.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites left over after making something else, and these cookies are the perfect way to use them up.
