Comment préparer Aunt Nelda's Sugar Cookies

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together ¾ cup granulated sugar and 1 cup vegetable shortening (or butter) until light and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, beat 2 large eggs well.
Stir the beaten eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into the creamed sugar and shortening mixture.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons cream of tartar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Cover the bowl and chill the dough overnight, or for at least 2 hours, until firm enough to handle.
Once chilled, roll the dough to ¼ inch thickness on a lightly floured surface, or drop by rounded tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets.
Sprinkle cookies generously with ¼ cup granulated sugar.
If dropping, flatten slightly with the bottom of a glass.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
