Buttermilk Cookies

  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • 1 Cup Shortening
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/2 Cup Buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder

  • 3 Cups Flour
  1. Combine all ingredients, except flour. Mix well.
  2. Add flour.
  3. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
  4. Adding chocolate chips are optional.
This is a good way to use up extra buttermilk that will spoil otherwise. Hope you enjoy!
