sugar cookies

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup shortening

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1 egg

2 Tbsp milk

2 1/2 cups flour

1/2 tsp soda

3/4 tsp salt

*Mix above until well combined.

*Drop onto cookie sheet, flatten with greased glass dipped in sugar (or colored sugar looks really cool!).

*Bake 400-degrees for 10 minutes (lessen temp if using dark, non-stick pan)

-Note: may also be rolled for cut-out cookies.  This works best if dough is refrigerated for a couple hours before rolling out.
