STEP 1

Basic Recipe:
6 cups flour
1 Tbsp. salt
2 1/2 cups Butter Flavored Crisco

Blend flour and salt together, cut in Crisco until dough resembles tiny peas. Makes 7-8 cups. Can refrigetate for up to 3 weeks.

STEP 2

Sugar Cookie Recipe:
2 cups Basic Recipe mix
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 cup flour
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg

Mix together all ingredients. Roll dough out to 1/4" thickness and cut with desired cookie cutter shapes (stars, flags, etc). Bake at 375 degrees on a lightly greased cookie sheet for 5-8 minutes (watch carefully, cookies should barely brown). Frost when cool.

* For the frosting I use the white cake frosting in the tub with food coloring. It works great!
