BEST SUGAR COOKIES 
1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1/4 tsp. salt
2 1/2 cups flour

Frosting:

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

Beat butter and sugar until creamy. Add egg and vanilla; beat until creamy. Add dry ingredients slowly until all blended.

You may refrigerate or roll immediately. Dust the working surface with a little powered sugar to roll.

Bake 5-10 minutes at 350°F.

Frost with icing. Might want to make double batches, these don't stay around long.
