These are so good and so addictive! You have to use Imperial margarine. If you don't the batter makes a good crumble for topping and baking fruit, but it will not make cookies.

This is my great grandma's recipe for butter cookies. They melt in your mouth. She always used Imperial brand margarine (hence the name) but they work well with butter also. These can be decorated with colored sugars before baking also.
