Melt-in-Your-Mouth Sugar Cookies

1 1/4 c. soft margarine
2 c. sugar
2 eggs

Beat until fluffy. Mix together, slowing beating in an additional
1/2 c. milk

Then add:
5 c. flour
1 tsp salt
4 tsp baking pwdr
1 tsp nutmeg

Bake at 325 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Watch closely. At 4 minutes they will be slightly shiny on top. When they stop being 'shiny' they are done! Let them sit on the sheet for a minute, then move to a cooling rack. They will fall apart if you move them too soon and will seem like they're not done. This is not the case-- this is what makes them so soft and yummy.

I'll make a lemon glaze (couple tbsp lemon juice mixed with some powdered sugar until reaches desired consistency) and put on top. Delicious!
