How to make stained glass cookies:

Mix thoroughly butter, confectioners sugar, egg and flavorings. Blend in flour, soda and cream of tartar. Divide dough in half; color portions of one-half with food colors. Cover dough; chill 2 to 3 hours.

Heat oven to 375°. Roll plain half of dough 1/8-inch thick on lightly floured cloth covered board. Cut with tree, star, ball or other decorative cookie cutters. Place on lightly greased baking sheet. Roll colored dough; cut out different shapes to fit on top of each plain cookie shape. If you wish to hang cookies on your Christmas tree, insert small piece of paper drinking straw through top of each cookie before baking. Bake 7 to 8 minutes or until golden brown on edges. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
