#2954 - Crispy Cookies

(by Shirley McNevich)

5 1/3 cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 cup softened butter
2 cups white sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk

Into a bowl sift the flour, baking powder and salt. In a mixer add butter and white sugar--beat. Add eggs--beat. Add milk--beat. Add cinnamon and nutmeg--beat. Slowly add flour mixture--beat (if too stiff for mixer, continue by hand using a wooden spoon). Refrigerate the dough for a few hours. Remove dough from refrigerator, roll out some of the dough very thin (1/16" thick) on a floured surface. Use cookie cutters to cut out the cookies, and place them on greased cookie sheets. Baket at 375 degrees about 7 minutes.
