MAWMAW'S TEA CAKES
I used to make these with my grandmother. Now, I'm teaching my grand children how to make them :-) If they are rolled out, they are crisp. But I have used less flour and made them like drop cookies, and they are softer that way.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients together. Add enough flour to get desired consistency ( about 3 or 4 cups ). Roll out on floured board. Cut with cookie cutter, and place on a greased cookie sheet.
- Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375 degrees, until lightly browned.
- NOTE: If you like lemon flavor, you can replace the vanilla extract with lemon extract. I have done this before and also put a lemon glaze on the top of the cookies after cooling.
