This is the recipe my family has used every year at Christmas time for as long as I can remember. We actually call them Aunt Bertha's cookies for some reason.
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. vanilla
2 c. sugar
1 c. shortening
1 c. milk
5 c. flour
4 tsp. baking powder
Mix all ingredients together. Drop on cookie sheet and press flat with damp cloth on glass, or roll out on a floured surface and cut out with cookie cutters.
