   Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line cookie sheet with baking parchment or grease lightly.

2. 2

   Combine flour and cream of tartar.

3. 3

   Cream shortening with sugar and salt until fluffy. Add egg, milk, baking soda and vanilla. Mix well. Add flour and mix until well blended. Pat dough into a large ball.

4. 4

   Dust hands with flour. Pinch off golf-ball-size pieces of dough. Place on cookie sheet and flatten into slabs 3/8-inch thick. Brush with more milk if a glossy top is desired. Bake until brown and almost firm, about 25 minutes. Check to be sure cookies don't burn. Cookies will harden as they cool. Makes about 2 dozen.
