Sugar Cookies 1 cup margarine (or butter); (2 sticks) at-room temperature 1 cup vegetable oil 4 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup powdered sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 eggs 1 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 teaspoon salt Beat together margarine, oil, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, eggs and vanilla. Sift together flour, salt, baking soda and cream of tartar. Add dry ingredients to margarine mixture. Drop from a teaspoon onto greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees until cookies are light brown around the edges, about 8 to 10 minutes (watch closely; cookies will be dry if they get too brown). Makes approximately 5 dozen.

Cookie Baking Instructions and Recipes Recipes are furnished as an approved Department of Corrections Guide. It is, however, very important not to use icing, sugar, or any other type of coating on the outside of the cookies, or to add any kind of fruit to the cookies. Cookies should be approximately 2 to 2 ½ inches in size. Package cookies 12 to a quart size zip lock bag. Please indicate the type of cookie on each bag. DO NOT package HOT cookies. Let them cool. They may be made weeks ahead of time and frozen – they still turn out perfect. Easy Cookies 2 packages white or yellow cake mix* 1 cup cooking oil 4 teaspoons water 4 eggs 2 cups (12 oz pkg) flavored chips* 2 cups rolled oats Preheat 350 degrees. Blend cake mix, water, oil, and eggs. Stir in chips and oatmeal. Place cookie dough in refrigerator about one hour. Drop by heaping teaspoons (to make 2” cookies) onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes (top will look pale). Cool on sheet 1 minute and remove to wire rack. Completely cool before packaging. **You can use any flavored chips (chocolate, peanut butter, swirled, toffee, etc.) but nothing like M&Ms, Reese’s Pieces, etc. You can also use chocolate cake mix or strawberry and lemon cake mixes.

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 to 12

minutes or until lightly browned. Makes 2-1/2 dozen cookies.

Chocolate Chip 3/4 cup Crisco shortening 1-3/4 cup all-purpose flour 1-1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons milk 3/4 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 cup semi-sweet choc chips 1 egg Combine shortening, sugar, milk and vanilla in a large bowl, mix until well blended.
