Directions:
1. Cream together sugars, butter, crisco, eggs and vanilla for 1 minute.
2. Sift together all dry ingredients.
3. Combine wet and dry well.
4. Roll out and cut shapes or roll into small balls and flatten on a cookie sheet.

Bake at 350 for 8 to 12 minutes. I like them a little crispy so I cook them till brown, if you like them soft watch them and don't let them get brown.

I like these with a simple butter cream frosting.
