2 C sugar
1 C softened butter
1 C milk
3 eggs
1 tsp b. soda
4 tsp b. powder
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
6 1/2 C flour
Cream together the sugar, butter and eggs. Add baking soda, baking powder, salt and vanilla. Add 4 cups flour then milk. Add the rest of the flour. You may not need all 6 1/2 cup, you may need a bit more. You want your dough just stiff enough it does not stick to the rolling pin and counter as you roll.
Roll your dough out in small portions, cut with your favorite cookie cutter and bake aprox. 10 min at 350*.
Cool and frost with your favorite frosting. I have always used store bought cream cheese frosting.
**Thanks to my cousin Nicloe for this recipe. We used to make these together every Valentine's Day and Halloween. Life got too busy and we don't get together any more. I miss it. I had great help today though....

How can Rex ice all those cookies and not want to eat them all? They sure look good. Great post....you are really getting with it lately.
looks like a good looking Valentine date to me...Thanks for the yummy treats!
Oh how i miss making them with you, and all the good times we had doing them, it is a lot of work. Looks like you had great help someday when our busy life's slow down we can get back together and do them again, I promise i will not fall down your back step again, but we all got a good laugh that night.. They look yummy!!
sorry my name did not come up.... I pushed the wrong button.
