Serious Cookies: All-Purpose Cutout Cookies Recipe

1. 1

   In a large bowl, beat together the shortening, butter, sugars, salt, baking powder, and vanilla. When well blended, add the egg, bleating until fluffy. Whisk the flours and/or cornstarch and stir in.

2. 2

   Divide the dough in half, form into disks, wrap well, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350u00b0F.

3. 3

   Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and roll it 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface. Cut with cookie or biscuit cutters, place the cookies on lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheets, and bake them for 8 to 10 minutes, until they're very lightly browned on the edges. Remove them from the oven and cool on racks.
