1 /2 c. butter or margarine
1/2 c. shortening
2 c. sugar
3 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla or nutmeg
1/4 c. milk
4 c. flour
1/4 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking powder
Mix all the wet ingredients together then add the dry ingredients. Mix well. Let it still in the refrigerator overnight so you can better roll it out more easily.
Roll out not to thin. Preheat oven to 350'. Cook for 8-10 min. Let them finish cooking on the top of the oven on the stove where it is warm still and then remove from the cookie sheet to the cooling rack.
Creamy White or Chocolate Frosting
1/2 c. margarine or butter
1 egg (I don't put the egg in)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 c. milk
4 c. powdered sugar
1/2 c. cocoa (if you want it to be chocolate)
1 tsp. vanilla
Blend butter or margarine, egg, cocoa (if doing chocolate frosting) and salt; add sugar aternately with milk and vanilla mixing until smooth and creamy. Generously frosts 2 9 inch layers or 1 13x9 in pan.
It is so yummy and great on cakes.

Nyree's Pizza Dough
So my friend Nyree had us over one night to make individual pizzas. The dough she made was amazing and Mike told me I needed to get her recipe and it was his new favorite pizza dough. We now normally only use this recipe because it is pretty easy to make and because it taste so good. You can even freeze it and it will rise pretty well as long as it doesn't stay in the freezer for too long of a time. I hope you all enjoy it.
Nyree Bevan's Pizza Dough
3 c. warm water
2 tbsp yeast
1/3 c. sugar
1/3 c. oil
2 tsp. salt
6-7 c. flour (approximately)
Mix warm water, yeast, and 1 tbsp of sugar in a separate bowl. Let it sit until it doubles in size. Mix the rest of the ingredients together while waiting for the yeast; except for the flour. Then add the yeast to the rest of the ingredients. Add enough flour gradually until it pulls away from the bowl.
Bake at 400' for 15-20 min. depending on the thickness of the crust. Enjoy!
