1 small cup sugar - 6 ounces. 1/2 cup butter - 4 ounces.

2 small cups milk - little less than a pint.

3 heaped up teaspoons baking powder. Flour to make soft dough - about

6 cups.

Warm the butter and mix it and the sugar together and then the milk (water will do.) Mix the powder in the flour, stir all together. Roll out very thin. Shake some granulated sugar over the sheet of dough, cut out and bake well done. Costs 17 or 18 cents for about 100 cookies.
