Makes Approximately 5-Dozen Small Cookies

In a large mixing bowl combine butter and vanilla with both sugars and beat
until light and fluffy. Add beaten eggs and blend well. Sift the flour and
all remaining dry ingredients together and beat into the butter mixture.
Either form the cookies now, or divide the dough and chill overnight.

Form the cookies now by rolling small pieces of dough into balls and baking
on a greased cookie sheet in a pre-heated 350-F degree oven for 10-15
minutes.

After chilling the dough, either cut the rolls into 1/8-inch thick slices
and place on a greased cookie sheet about 1/2-in apart, or roll the cooled
dough out into 1/4-inch thick portions and cut with cookie cutters. Bake in
a pre-heated 350-F degree oven for 10-15 minutes and store in an airtight
container.
