1 tb Light cream

2 1/2 c Flour

2 ts Baking powder

1/2 ts Salt

1/2 ts Nutmeg

1 ts Lemon juice

Roll out thin on a floured board, cut with cookie cutters, and bake at 350^F for about 8 minutes until golden. Do not let cookies get too brown. Decorate as desired Makes 4-5 dozen Eleanor Homeyer: "These are better than ordinary sugar cookies because of the flavoring. Decorate with colored sugar, raisins, nuts, pieces of candied fruit. It wouldn`t feel right to have Christmas come before baking sugar-cookie bells, stars, trees and animals for the family." -----
