No Roll Sugar Cookies
A few weeks ago when I was looking for something to bake, I stumbled across this recipe on Pinterest. It's very easy to make and the work is quite worth it. I am putting down the ingredients doubled because the original recipe only makes 2 dozen. But when I made this, by doubling the recipe I got 6 dozen cookies, but didn't triple the recipe. If you wish only to make 2-3 dozen, then just reduce the ingredients by half. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup butter, unsalted
1 cup shortening
3 1/3 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 eggs (yes, seriously!)
3 1/2 cups flour
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°F. Cream butter and shortening on medium until combined. Add sugar, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt. Continue beating until fluffy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Add in eggs and vanilla until combined. Beat in flour a little bit at a time. Roll into balls and place on cookie sheet. Bake 15-17 minutes or until just set (you do not want the cookies to brown). Cool on the cookie sheet about 3 minutes and cool completely on wire rack.

I'm Back!
With this post I "welcome" myself back! It's good to be back on The Online Cookbook - after I remembered I had even created it, I kind of forgot about it for awhile. I have some delicious recipes waiting to be posted and can't wait to get back into the routine. Also, if you want more recipes, feel free to visit my Pinterest page, if you have Pinterest. In the search engine, type "csblogger" and when it comes up with results, click the "Pinners" tab. My profile, Chandler J. Smith, should come up immediately. Have a great day, and more recipes come very shortly!
