Butter Wafers

Directions

Sift flour and sugar together into a mixing bowl.

Add butter and work it in with tips of fingers or a pastry blender.

Combine egg, milk and vanilla and stir into flour mixture.

Mix well to form a dough. Shape into ½ inch balls.

If dough seems too soft, refrigerate until the desired consistency is reached before shaping.

Place balls 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Flatten balls to 1/16 inch thickness using the bottom of a glass covered with a damp cloth.

Bake in a 400 deg. oven for 6 to 8 minutes or until slightly browned around the edges.

Do not bake too brown.

Remove immediately to a wire rack to cool.

Store in a tightly covered containter.
