This recipe is over 75 documented years old as it has been passed down from generation to generation in my Kentucky family...a real reminder of the warm, comforting cookie a loving mother shares with her children on a cold, wintry day.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the margarine and sugar. Add eggs and beat until fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Dissolve the baking soda in the buttermilk and add alternately to the margarine mixture with flour mixture.
- Roll out dough and sprinkle with nutmeg. Cut with a biscuit cutter. Dough will be very soft and delicate.
- Bake until lightly browned around the edges. A really soft, chewy cookie.
