Butter Cookies

I like the recipe because it easy. I got this from my old kitchen book I found in the basement.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 18
• Yields: 16-18 cookies

Ingredients

• 2  cups butter
• 3  cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1⁄4 cups sugar
• 1⁄8 teaspoon baking soda

Directions

1. Soften the butter with beaters.
2. Mix the all-purpose flour,sugar, and baking soda, in with the softened butter.
3. Spray your baking pan with Pam or cover it with butter.
4. Fill up an ice cream scoop; put it on the cookie tray; flatten down a little bit with your hand.
5. Bake the cookies for at least 8 to 10 minutes.
6. Note: Another way to find out if your cookies are done is by taking a spatula and lifting the cookie up; if it is golden over the bottom it is done.
