Sugar Cookie Drops

350*F 8-15 min. (depends on size of your cookie!)

1 cup butter
1 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 cup granulated sugar


2 eggs
1 t vanilla extract
4 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 t baking soda
1 t cream of tartar

3/4 cup granulated sugar (for decoration)

cream together the butter, oil, and sugars
add the rest of the ingedients.

roll dough into 1" balls (personally mine are bigger - i have no patience for itty bitty dough bits) so bake longer - mine take 15 minutes to bake.

roll the balls in sugar.

place on ungreased cookie sheet/pizza stone, whatever you like to use.

flatten the balls with a fork (if you remember, lol - i get distracted a lot when baking and half my cookies never get squished before baking and after baking they taste the same. the unsquished cookie dough balls will get a cool crackle finish on top, though. . . )

supposed to make 6 dozen. never makes that many for me. closer to 3-4 dozen in my reality. and wow are they ever tasty esp warm from oven. :)

freezes well, too if you have any left over.
