Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 c crisco
1/2 c margarine softened i use tub bluebonett
1 c sugar
1 egg
2 1/2 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 c buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350. In mixing bowl combine shortening, butter, sugar and egg. I use my trusty wooden spoon, using a mixer puts too much air in the batter and ruins the cookies.
2. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir well. The batter will be soft and creamy.
3. Drop by spoonful onto greased cookie sheet. Pat down lightly with you fingers and sprinkle each dough drop with sugar. Bake 8-10 min. Cool completely and store in your favorite cookie jar. Enjoy!Bet you can't eat just one!!!
