I don't bake to many cookies, but I love my tea cakes.
2 eggs
1 c. sugar
3/4 c. cooking oil
1 tsp. vanilla
2 c. self-rising flour
Put all ingredients in mixing bowl; mix well and drop by teaspoonfuls on cookie sheet (greased). Bake at 425 degrees about 10 to 12 minutes. Tea cakes will harden as they cool.

I just made cookies yesterday for Hubby. There a basic Chocolate Chip I got from the 1978 Betty Crocker Cookbook (the red cover). They turn out perfect every time and every one loves them. My Stepmom had that cookbook when I was growing up and used it to help teach us kids how to cook.

It is tough sometimes to find good recipes let alone be able to pull them off . I think you have to have the natural love to do it to begin with . I fell in love with baking as a child when My grandmother would make homemade hard candy and chocolate covered cherries. I loved sitting there watching the candy form and take shape . Every thing would be done around 3 o'clock in the morning so when the rest of the family woke up they would have all the sweet treats out in front of them in pretty dishes . It made me feel like a little elf.
