MILLION DOLLAR COOKIES

Sugar cookie with a delightful blend of flavors and crispy edges. The first time I tasted this cookie I just said "wow". It's my favorite cookie jar cookie and I highly recommended it. If you bake and ship to loved ones, this cookie travels very well even in summer heat. I use bubble wrap between layers and they survive the trip to Iraq.

Time 35m

Yield 24 cookies, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons butter, soft
3/4 cup Crisco, butter flavored
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons almond flavoring
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Oven 350° for 12-15 minutes until edges are slightly brown.
  • Cream fats and sugars until fluffy.
  • Add egg and beat until absorbed.
  • Add flavorings to creamed mixture.
  • Sift dry ingredients together into separate bowl and blend together.
  • Add dry to creamed mixture and mix just until flour is incorporated; do not over mix.
  • Chill dough.
  • Roll into balls and flatten on cookie sheet with glass bottom dipped in sugar.
  • My addition of some butter allows the fats and sugars to crème to a fluffy consistency superior to Crisco alone. Butter has a small percentage of water that helps build volume and break down the sugars. The use of all butter will result in a softer cookie if this is your preference. This important 1st stage of preparation will make good cookies, blue ribbon winners.

2 cups solid shortening
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs

  • Using a soup spoon, scoop out some dough and place it in your palm. Using both hands, roll into a ball and place on a cookie sheet, leaving room for it to spread.
  • Once you have filled the sheet with balls, place 1/2 cup sugar into a little container, and dip the bottom of a drinking glass into it and use it to flatten dough balls. Flatten each ball until it is about 1/3 inch thick. Dip the glass into the sugar again after you flatten each ball.
