The old times were good. We had more time to share with each other and enjoy home baked cookies. The old fashioned cookies are a glorious reminder of the past that exists even today. They still find their way into our kitchens on Christmas because we all love them. They are classic and the whole family usually takes part in the preparation. Every family prides in making their own special cookies and share with friends and neighbors.
Ingredients
  • Butter: 1 cup
  • Granulated sugar: 2 cups
  • Eggs, well beaten: 2
  • Milk: 2 tablespoons
  • Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
  • Flour: 3 cups
  • Baking powder: 2 teaspoons
  • Salt: ½ teaspoon
  • Granulated sugar
Instructions
  1. Take the mixing bowl and pour in the butter. Cream the butter. Add to it the sugar and beat it in slowly. To this mixing bowl, add the milk, eggs and the vanilla extract. Mix in all of these ingredients together very well. The smoother this mixture, the better cookies you get.
  2. In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and the salt. After you combine them, add them to the butter mixture in step one. Combine it all really thoroughly without any lumps.
  3. This is your dough for the cookies. Cover it with aluminium foil and refrigerate for at least four hours.
  4. After you take out the dough, use clean hands to shape it into ¾ diameter inch balls. Place these balls on a greased baking sheet with a distance of 2 inches between them.
  5. After you are done with making all the ball, it is time to shape them like cookies. Dip the bottom of a glass in butter and granulated sugar and use it to flatten the balls you made.
  6. Bake the cookies in the oven at a temperature of 375 degrees. They should ideally take 8-10 minutes to cook. Remove them as soon as they start turning brown. Serve after cooking a bit.
