3/4 c. soft butter
1 c. sifted flour
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 c. sugar

Cream butter and sugar in a bowl until fluffy. Blend in vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time - beat well after each addition. Beat in flour. Grease and flour cookie sheets and drop 6 rounded teaspoons of dough on each sheet 2 inches apart.

Bake in preheated 375 degree oven for 15-20 minutes until edges are browned. Remove from oven and loosen with wide spatula carefully. Keep pan warm. Fold each cookie in half gently wrapping the fortune inside. Pinch points together. Makes 5 dozen.
