Better Butter Batter

   Today was Greg's turn.  I picked him up after his golf lesson, and we broke out the cookie recipe files.  Butter cookies are not as popular as many other cookies, and we needed to search through to find a viable one.  We even googled; there is a lot of variety among the recipes.  Yes, all recipes call for butter, and flour, and baking soda, but there the similarity ends.  Do we use an egg, 2 eggs, or no egg?  White sugar, or brown sugar?  Vanilla, or lemon juice, or orange juice?  A little salt, of course, unless you are sodium restricted.  Decisions were made, the batter was mixed, and the dough was contained, labeled, and put in the fridge with the other prospective entries.  We didn't turn the oven on for the taste test; it was too hot.  We're hoping for the best.
