In a large mixing bowl and using a hand mixer, beat the butter, sugar, and whisked eggs until creamy.

Cut dough out with a 3" cookie or biscuit cutter - OR roll into 1 1/2" balls. Place on baking sheet.

If desired, while they are still hot, dip the tops in sugar.
GRANDMOTHER'S OLD-TIME TEA CAKES
My grandmother would always have a plastic tub of these cookies waiting for us when we would come to visit. This is a very old Southern recipe--my grandmother cooked for many years with a wood-burning stove, so the baking temperature is approximate. You may need to adjust the temperature up or down, depending upon your oven. Of all the wonderful things that she made, these were the best! They are great with milk or coffee, and they are a much-loved family favorite.

PROHIBITION TEA CAKES
This recipe is from an old cookbook I found. This is a Prohibition recipe because it calls for wine, so they had to use homemade wine. Home made wine or beer was legal as long as it contained no more than one-half per cent alcohol. From Every Woman's Cook Book, by Mrs. Chas. F. Moritz (1926) p. 457-458. The amounts in the ingredients look like estimates, much like my Gamma's recipes. She never measured anything so when she gave me her recipes it was all guesses and also from me watching her.

Steps:
- Cream butter soft, add sugar, continue creaming until well mixed. Beat in wine, add salt, cinnamon and vanilla.
- Sift in flour gradually while beating, add baking powder to second cup flour.
- Mix well, roll out one-quarter inch thick on floured biscuit board. Cut with fancy cake cutters. Put in greased pans dusted with flour.
- Sprinkle granulated sugar over tops. Bake in moderate oven. Makes about forty cakes.
- ** That is the recipe as stated. Moderate oven I would say is about 350°F It doesn't give a time. 15 minutes would likely be long enough at that temperature I suggest trying them at 275°F for 45 minutes.
- Don't get raided by the coppers! :).
