                      Angel Sugar Cookies 
                      Use recipe below to make sugar cookies; have the 
                        children assist you with  cutting out and decoratingtheir own angels. 
                        (Inexpensive cookie cutters can be purchased at  dollar stores.) In lieu of making cookie
 dough, 
                        you can use the refrigerated sugar cookie dough found in 
                        the dairy section of the grocery store.
  
                      Sugar Cookies Ingredients:1/3 cup butter or 
                      margarine, softened
 1/3 cup shortening
 3/4 cup sugar
 1 teaspoon baking powder
 pinch salt
 1 egg
 1 teaspoon vanilla
 2 cups all-purpose flour
 granulated sugar, colored if desired
Directions:Beat butter and shortening thoroughly with an electric 
                      mixer or pastry cutter.
 Add sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt and mix until 
                      well combined.
 Beat in egg and vanilla then as much flour as you can with 
                      the electric mixer.
 Stir in the remaining flour.
 Cover and chill for at least 1 hour;
 Split the dough in 1/2 and roll one half at a time.  Cut 
                      out with Angel cookie cutters.
 Keep the piece you aren't using in the fridge.
 Bake on ungreased cookie sheets for about 7 to 8 minutes, 
                      until edges are firm
 and bottoms are lightly browned 
                      (don't over cook).
 Bake at 325 degrees F
 Makes 36 cookies.
