Best Butter Cookies!<br />

BY ANNE CLEARY (CORPORATE)<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 cup soft butter<br />

½ cup powdered sugar<br />

2 cups flour<br />

My parents were married in 1944, and so happily married for 75 years<br />

and 11 months. This butter cookie recipe was in a <strong>cookbook</strong> they<br />

received as a wedding present and it has been part of our holidays<br />

ever since. This tradition has been shared in our family and my mother<br />

thinks her great-grandchildren actually make the best batches! Here’s<br />

the very, very simple recipe.<br />

Directions<br />

Cream butter and sugar, add flour and mix well. Make into balls,<br />

flatten down (the back of a spoon with a dusting of flour works best).<br />

Sprinkle with baker’s decorating sugar and bake at 375 degrees on an<br />

ungreased cookie sheet for 12-15 min.<br />
