SB Legal Sugar Cookie Cutouts

I have also adjusted a sugar cookie recipe from the Better Homes and garden cook book to be SB legal.
SB Legal Sugar Cookie Cutouts
1/3 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup shortening
¾ cup fructose
1 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1-1/2 to 2 cups SGWW flour
dash salt
Beat butter and shortening on medium to high speed 30n seconds. Add fructose, baking powder and salt. Beat until combined, scraping bowl. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in remaining flour. Divide dough in half. If necessary, cover and chill dough for 3 hours or until easy to handle.
On a lightly floured surface, roll half at a time to 1/8 inch thick. Using a 2-1/2 inch cookie or biscuit cutter, cut into desired shared. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a 375 oven 7 to 8 minutes or until the edges are firm and bottom are very lightly browned. Cool on rack.
I have about 30 cutters of varying sizes and used all of them with success. Smaller cookies should be baked for a shorter time. Also, my DH asked if I would press some crunched pecans into the cookies before baking. And that was a huge success. We're taking some with us for Christmas so we can stay on track….
