Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, powdered sugar, butter, and vegetable oil.
  3. Beat in egg and extract.
  4. Add next 4 ingredients and mix together. The dough will be somewhat soft. Refrigerate a few minutes if too soft to work with.
  5. Shape into 1-inch balls and roll in reserved 1/2 cup of granulated sugar.
  6. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and flatten with the bottom of a glass that has been dipped in granulated sugar (or colored sugar if you prefer).
  7. Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes.
  8. Note: Cookies should be only very slightly browned. They will be a more of a light golden color.
