1 c. sugar
1/2 c. butter
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. sour milk (milk + 1 tbsp. vinegar)
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 1/4 c. flour
Colored sugar crystals (optional)

Cream together sugar, butter, and eggs. Add sour milk and vanilla; mix. Stir in baking soda, salt and baking powder. Gradually mix in flour. Drop by teaspoon onto cookie sheets. Sprinkle with colored sugar crystals for decoration, if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Makes 5 dozen cookies.

These cookies are moist and not crumbly, especially easy for small children to handle themselves.
