Merry Christmas Cookies

As a kid I made these cookies every year at Christmas time (hence the name) with my mom. They are a lot of fun to make, and little guys especially love getting to use the rolling pin and cookie cutters.

½ C butter
½ C shortening
1 C sugar
3 eggs
2 C honey
1 Tbsp vanilla
8 ¼ C flour
1 Tbsp soda
1 Tbsp salt

Chill dough at least 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 375.

Roll out to ¼ inch thickness. Cut out cookies. Bake 8-10 minutes.

(Theoretically this should make 15 dozen cookies, but it doesn’t even come close. This is 3x the original recipe.)
