I finally found my mom's butter cookie recipe and made a batch the other day. I've never forgotten how delicious these cookies are, so I'm really glad I found the recipe. They're easy to make and only require a few ingredients.
1 stick of butter at room temperature
1/2 cup of shortening
1 cup of sugar
1 egg
2 cups of flour
Combine ingredients in order shown. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets. Flatten and shape with fork dipped in water.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes until light brown around edges. Makes 24 - 48 cookies, depending upon size.
I make mine somewhat larger, so I usually end up with a few dozen. They are similar to shortbread, a tiny bit crumbly, and really good.
