1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1/2 Cup Shortening
1 Cup Sugar
1 Egg Unbeatened
1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla
1/2 Cup Sour Cream

Directions:

Sift together flour, soda & salt. Combine butter, sugar, egg & vanilla in mixing bowl. Beat about 2 minutes. Scrape bowl. Add sour cream and half of the flour mixture. Beat for 1 minute. Scrape bowl. Add remaining flour & stir in by hand. Divide dough in half and roll each part on lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thick. Lift to greased cookie sheet with pancake turner. Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown.
