This is the only cookie recipe I have from Hough's

HOUGH BAKERY COOKIES

1 cup butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2 2/3 cup flour

Cream 1 cup butter and gradually add 1 cup sugar. Add 1 unbeaten egg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons vanilla. Beat well.

Gradually blend in 2 2/3 Cups sifted flour.

Bake on ungreased cookie sheet 375 degrees F for 10 minutes.

If putting in a cookie press use immediately, if rolling out chill 2 hours first.

Sprinkle with sugar before baking.

If you wish, add a topping of your choice.
