1 cup shortening
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1-1/2 cups sour milk *
2 tsp. vanilla
4-1/2 cups plus 2 tbsp. flour
3 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda

3 tbsp. butter
2-1/4 cups powdered sugar
1/8 cup milk
3/4 tsp. vanilla

Directions:
|
Blend sugar and shortening together. Add eggs, vanilla and sour milk. Blend. In a separate bowl mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Slowly add to wet mixture. Blend thoroughly. Drop by tablespoon and flatten slightly. Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Frosting:**
Blend butter until fluffy. Add powdered sugar and blend. Add milk and vanilla, blend. Add cocoa (for chocolate frosting), blend. Ice cookies partially white, then partially dark to achieve a moon look -- whether half moon, waxing or waning, it's up to you!

*(1 teaspoon vinager to 1 cup milk)
** Do this 2x once for vanilla and once for chocolate.
I make 10-14 big cookies or about 12 dozen little cookies with this recipe.
You can add more or less powdered sugar to achieve the desired consistency. Just don't add to much!
