ingredients

2 cups butter
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
4 teaspoons vanilla
6 cups flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder

directions

Cream butter, eggs, sugar, and vanilla well with a wooden spoon.
Add flour, baking powder and salt together - add flour mix gradually to creamed mixture - 1/3 at a time. Mix well with wooden spoon until forms together then continue to mix with your hands towards the end form into a big ball and the texture is smooth - divide into 3 pieces easier to handle. No flour needed, just roll dough into a ball like a tea cookie then place on surface and roll with your fingers into a long shape and fold over like a pretzel or make a favorite shape.
*If you use a cookie press chill dough.
