My grandmother didn't use a measuring cup so thankfully 1 of my aunts stood there while she cooked and measured everything as my grandmother made these.

How To Make grandma's butter cookies

Step 1

Cream butter and margarine together. Mix in sugar. Add sifted flour slowly. Add cinnamon.

Step 2

Form small balls and press using your fingers to flatten them to 1/8 inch thick.
Step 3

Bake in a 300 degree oven slowly for about 20 minutes. They should be brown and crunchy. The fingerprints just make them more homey.
