1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. Crisco
1 c. sugar
1 egg
2 1/2 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. vanilla, orange or lemon
1/2 tsp. baking soda

Cream sugar, butter and Crisco. Add egg, beat well. Then add dry ingredients, mix well. Roll in balls and press with a fork. Bake at 325 degrees 8 or 10 minutes until nice and brown.

I use 2 sticks of butter and no Crisco.
