If making for a gift: In a 2-liter jar, layer the dry ingredients in the order in which they appear in the recipe. Cap the jar and decorate with ribbon. Be sure to jot down the baking ingredients below the dry ingredients (butter, eggs and vanilla) and the recipe below, and include it as part of the gift.

Mix all dry ingredients and break up the sugar well. Pour into the mix all the wet ing. and mix well. Mixture is sort of sticky. Drop spoonfuls of mixture on cookie sheet (Use parchment paper for easy clean up!) and shape into a cookie by giving it a little pat on top. Put into a 375 degree F oven for about 15 minutes.
Remove from oven let them cool and then sprinkle them with powder sugar.
