Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
*Can put covered dough in fridge a little while, if too soft to roll.
*I bake on ungreased, parchment-lined cookie sheets.
I remember one time Dad baked these and accidentally used baking soda for the baking powder...they were effervescent, like Alka Seltzer.
A really old recipe from Bertie Atwood
