Kathy'S Frosted Soft Sugar Cookies

• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1 cup shortening
• 3 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 cup sour milk (put 1 T vinegar in measuring cup and add enough milk to make 1 cup)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 cups flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder

1. Mix the vinegar and milk to make sour milk.
2. Add vanilla to the sour milk; set aside.
3. In large mixing bowl, cream together sugar and shortening until light and fluffy.
4. Add eggs, one at a time.
5. In separate bowl, blend together baking soda, salt, flour and baking powder.
6. Add flour mixture, alternately with sour milk mixture, to the creamed sugar and egg mixture.
7. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
8. On floured surface, roll out dough to desired thickness, about 1/4 inch.
9. Cut out with desired cookie cutter or cutters.
10. Bake at 350 degrees for about 5-7 minutes; I like mine soft.
11. Let set on cookie sheet for 1 minute before removing to wire rack to cool.
12. Frost when cool.
13. This recipe should make about 5-6 dozen, depending on the size of the cookie cutter you use.
