Mmmmmmm

Craving some cookies. I need to find a recipe. Oh good, found one-cracked sugar cookies!


First crack the egg....


hhmmm. Should have cracked it in the bowl. That might have worked out better!


Next add the shortening. Then some brown sugar.


A little salt. A tad of cream of tarter.

And mix it up real good.
Next form the dough into little balls.


Roll them in sugar.

Place on the cookie sheet.

Oh hurry cookie, I really want to eat you.
They actually crack when they bake!


FINALLY I get to eat this delicious cookie. Mmmmm tastes so good.


This was one of my favorite memories as a kid, my mom baking these kind of cookies. When I knew she was baking them, my mouth would always start to water. Baking cracked sugar cookies brings me back to a great time with my mom, I hope I can pass on this tradition to my kids.
