St. Patrick's Day is here in Meadow Sweet Grove and the fairies are celebrating! There's lots of singing, dancing, green mead and shamrock sugar cookies to go around.  Of course, the hunt is also on to find those lucky four-leaf clovers before the mortals stumble across them.  The fairies have a special incentive to do so - it is said if you find a four-leaf clover, you will be gifted with the power to see fairies ....

Shamrock Sugar Cookies

2 cups sifted flour                        
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup butter​
1 cup sugar
1 beaten egg
1 tbsp milk

1 tsp vanilla

Combine dry ingredients.  Cream the butter and sugar together in a separate bowl.  Beat in the egg, milk and vanilla into the wet ingredients.  Sift and add dry mixture a bit at a time and mix well.  Shape dough into a ball, cover bowl and chill until firm.

​Meanwhile, grease or line cookie sheets.  Preheat oven to 375
°.  Roll out chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thickness.  Cut with shamrock or clover shaped cookie cutters and place on cookie sheets.

Bake for about 7 minutes until edges are a very light brown.

Disclaimer:  Many of the items sold are vintage or pre-loved. Quality of vintage items vary with the manufacturing methods available at the time of production. They are not made to current standards of manufacturing ... and in my opinion, that is usually a good thing! They tend to be higher quality, last longer and include more attention to detail than today's products. However, safety standards do change over time, items do deteriorate with age, and it is up to the customer to decide how they will use each product.
