These are soft, cake-like cookies, best with frosting. Roll them out thickly, and bake no more than 8 minutes. They will stay soft, and everyone raves over them. I use them as cutouts for holidays.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Cream together the margarine, sugar and eggs.

Stir in vanilla, flour, baking soda and salt.

Roll out (not too thin) and cut into any shape.

Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 8 minutes.

I have used confectioner sugar frosting, or buttercream frosting, or even canned frosting ( if I'm desperate).
