Pope's Valentine Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:

1/2 pound butter, softened

2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

1 cup sifted confectioners' sugar

1 tablespoon milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (170 degrees C).

Mix butter in a mixer until light, add remaining ingredients.

Knead until velvety. Roll one-half of the dough at a time to about 1/4 inch thickness using the smallest amount of flour possible.

Cut out and bake on a lightly greased pan for 12 minutes. Cookies will be almost white when cooked.
